What ever happened to this hack? How come it never made it as a full release. I would really like to give it a try if it's working correctly.

Has this been orphaned??

O_O Well Overgrow has a hack to track what happens when threads are moved / deleted and so on. But as for the Bin hack.... it might already be made I am not to sure.

I've never seen this in the full releases section. I did a search for recycle and nothing of importance comes up besides this thread.

I really like the idea of the recycle bin since I have 20+ moderators I would like the final say in what is permanantly deleted.

Well I myself want this... I will work on it today / finish what I started...

Ummm so I forgot what what should I be adding to the hack I made... its on page two if you want to see it.

I believe I installed the hack when you first released it and I couldn't figure out how to access the recycle bin (so I removed the hack). I was also a bit worried since it wasn't a full release and that it might still have some problems.

I just implement hacks and I'm not good at debugging and stuff... I did notice that there were a few concerns from folks who installed it.

So, I've just been waiting for you to finish it up and make it a full release.

Thanks,

Rick

Everything people want to do here can be handled with permissions, I think. Set regular user and moderators permissions so that they cannot delete a thread. Tell moderators to move threads without redirect to a forum named Recycle Bin. Voila!

That's a standard recycle bin. What they want is for people to be able to "delete" threads but in actuality they are moved to a Recycle Bin for evidence in case they need it. From there it can be deleted by an admin.

I will take a look at what Neo has done thus far and take it the rest of the way...if I can figure out what the rest of the way is :p

I should add, they want this done transparently so no one knows the thread is not actually being deleted.
