ENH: Topic recycle bin #515

Open johnhenley opened 1 year ago

Is your feature request related to a problem?

If you have "soft-delete" option enabled, and you delete something, perhaps by mistake, it would be nice to restore it.

Describe the solution you'd like

A recycle bin. I think one used to be part of the original active forums module as part of "moderator tools".

Describe alternatives you've considered

Going into the database and changing the isDeleted flag :(

Once we get past adding the moderator updates, this does sound like a good feature to have. It will need to be aware of the full context of the deleted item, though.

For example, what if a single post was deleted for spam/abuse, then later the thread was deleted by accident? Since it was an accident, when restoring the thread, will we restore the spam post too? Just the first scenario I thought of.
