John Smith	Wednesday 07 November 2007 2:55:39 am Hi there, I hope someone can help me if possible. One of our clients accidently deleted whole "Files" folder from the Media Library which contain about 1500 files(PDF's, Doc files) . All the files were being used by some articles and folders. Is there any easy way to restore all the files in one go. Please help. Thanks Smith
André R.	Wednesday 07 November 2007 3:20:11 am No easy way I'm afraid, so the normal way to do it is to restore one and one node at a time from the root and deeper in the thrashed tree. But some information on the original placement is preserved at least in 3.9 and higher. So it might be possible to write a script that restores the content recursively (from root to leaf). eZ Online Editor 5: http://projects.ez.no/ezoe \|\| eZJSCore (Ajax): http://projects.ez.no/ezjscore \|\| eZ Publish EE http://ez.no/eZPublish/eZ-Publish-Enterprise-Subscription @: http://twitter.com/andrerom
