Soft Deleted Archive

Soft Deleted Archive v3.2

If you have a forum where you disallow your Moderators to Hard Delete posts, you might want to look over exactly what posts they have deleted, in case of disputes between staff and members. But running a huge forum with hundreds of threads, this task can get tiring.
This is where the Soft Deleted Archive comes in handy!

Features:

• Seperate threads and posts
• Name and link to forum of the thread/post
• Username that posted the post
• Username that deleted the post
• Reason for deletion, if any were inputted
• Date of thread/post deletion
• For threads, link that takes you directly to the thread in question
• For posts, link that takes you directly to the post in question, for manual managing
• Limit the number of total entries to show per page
• Ability to choose Sorting Order (Ascending or Descending)
• Flagging Threads and Posts seperately
• Fully phrased
• Ability to Hard Delete selected threads/posts
• Ability to Restore selected threads/posts
• NO Code Modifications needed!
• More efficient forum counter rebuilding.

Screenshots attached.

Install instructions:

1. Click install (you want your precious support, don't you?).
2. Upload the files.
3. Import the Product XML file through your ACP.
4. Enjoy.

Additional Credits:

I upgraded yesterday to vB 3.5 Final and there is no "Soft Deleted Archive" in AdminCP anymore. Reinstalled hack but nothing's changed. I'll try again later.

I added a few filter to your hack, so it can display only post or thread, or both.

if you want, I can send you the file that I edit

[Revan]

Sure, thanks

[Valter]

Now it works perfect. Thanks for update

Hey Revan, seems the performance tweaking made a difference. The latest version no longer times out for me... It still takes a while to load but hell I aint complaining... It works! Thanks a lot.

[Revan]

Thats great, nice to see it works better
How many elements (ie threads/posts) are you managing at a time?

This is helpful to keep track of all the soft deleted threads and posts. I also uploaded the file softdeladmin.php into the modcp, in addition to the admincp, so that the moderators would be able to view all soft deleted threads and posts on the forum as well.

The "flag" button seems to have the same function as "undelete" so I'm not sure what its purpose is.

I think the text Here, you can view an index of all the posts/threads that you or your moderators have "Soft Deleted". should be changed to Here, you can view an index of all the posts/threads that have been "Soft Deleted". because it also includes soft deleted posts by regular members.
