                       Hi, 
  Apolgies if this issue has been addressed before, I searched, but couldn't find any info.
  I have, by mistake, deleted an entire forum, the main section of the forum on my website.
  I haven't backed up.
  Is it gone forever?
  Help
  Please

                      |  You can't retrieve a deleted forum by changing it's f_status, once a forum is deleted it is gone forever as are all its topics and replies. |

                      |  Well, that depends if spidertat means that he's deleted the forum web pages or the forum database.  If the database is gone, there's no way back.  If you've deleted the web pages you can just download them again from Snitz, adding any MODs as necessary. |
