Re: recover all post deleted by accident by bad mojo portal design

Alejandro,

I know you're upset about this but there isn't a problem or bad design in mojoPortal. You accidentally deleted the module containing your posts. The Module Settings page is where you deleted it from and that page looks much different from the post edit page. Further, when pressing the delete button, you were prompted if you wanted to delete the content "from all pages". 

Knowing all of this, would you please remove the very derogatory post you put on your website about mojoPortal. It isn't true and is not fair. We provide this CMS free of charge and it works very well for thousands of websites. It has done so for over a decade. In fact, the version of mojoPortal you have installed was released 7 years ago and if you were to upgrade today, it would still work fine, just with more features.

I hope you will delete your post deriding mojoPortal.

Thanks,
Joe

That's what a database backup is for. You don't have a database backup, that's bad planning on your part. Not ours.

Thanks,
Joe

Alejandro I would support Joe's suggestion that your remarks above are unjustified, offensive and derogatory. He has tried hard to help you after your mistake. The post you have recently put on http://rta.cat/ is disgraceful. 

If you really have no database backup in seven years of running a website then you are not competent to make such accusations - that would be like saying BMW make bad cars because you drove yours into a tree when you were drunk. Or because the engine broke after you didn't put any oil in for 7 years. No, it is your mistake entirely, and you probably deserve legal action for your recent blog post, though I suspect Joe is too kind to consider such things.

I do not feel inclined to help you after what you have said and posted, but...  if your lost blog was public, then you will find that all posts have been indexed and archived by Google/Bing, and it should be easy to recover your content from there.

Re: recover all post deleted by accident by bad mojo portal design

hi, I read the discussion a bit,

I think the crispin post represents my thought. First of all, the advice I give you , I work as a programmer is to stay calm. mojoportal is really well done and in my opinion is the best cms to date, much superior and versatile than many other more known. believe me it's really well done.

the fact is that a minimum of standards of behavior is required when managing a site. backups are at the base of everything. periodically they must be backed up just because something goes wrong. or by competence, or for human and non-human errors.
accusing mojoportal of being unlucky is really like accusing a car if it breaks because it does not do maintenance. if you have not made a backup it is not the fault of anyone, let alone mojoportal or those who designed and built it.
mojoportal I can assure you that he does his duty in an excellent way, therefore, he avoids accusing.
I'm sorry if I may have looked, hard, but it's my thought, and I come in defense of mojoportal.


we are trying to help you ...
