There is no automatic restore function, basically you'd just put it all back via ftp.
I should think there is a relatively easy way to get the OS to untar all the files back, dunno if the tar format retains permissions though... one to research.

da420... damn, I didn't think it would to be honest, I need to do some more research and testing and see if I can incorportate that.

vietkieu_cz... I don't honestly know. I'm 95% the answer is yes because there's nothing particularly 3.6 specific in there that I know of, but you'd have to try it out.

I get that part... Replace all the files... But thats just the .php files and FTP

What about the actual Forums? Like if a thread was permently deleted and you wanted to restore last nights, so you would get that thread back.
