Restore unpublished and deleted pages in Silverstripe

franklin — Sun, 22 Aug 2010 18:48:45 +0000

In order to restore unpublished and deleted pages in Silverstripe I found this post in the Silverstripe Forums. As you need to edit the SQL statement depending on your installation and Silverstripe version, here’s the statement for the Silverstripe 2.4 version using the URLSegment.

First, find the deleted entry:

SELECT * FROM SiteTree_versions WHERE URLSegment = "your-url-segment" ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT 1;

Second, copy the entry into the SiteTree table (replace YOUR_ID with the SiteTree_versions.ID):

INSERT INTO SiteTree (ID, Version, ClassName, Created, LastEdited, URLSegment, Title, MenuTitle, Content, MetaTitle, MetaDescription, MetaKeywords, ExtraMeta, ShowInMenus, ShowInSearch, HomepageForDomain, ProvideComments, Sort, HasBrokenFile, HasBrokenLink, STATUS, ReportClass, CanViewType, CanEditType, ToDo, Priority, ParentID, Locale) SELECT RecordID, Version, ClassName, now(), now(), URLSegment, Title, MenuTitle, Content, MetaTitle, MetaDescription, MetaKeywords, ExtraMeta, ShowInMenus, ShowInSearch, HomepageForDomain, ProvideComments, Sort, HasBrokenFile, HasBrokenLink, STATUS, ReportClass, CanViewType, CanEditType, ToDo, Priority, ParentID, Locale FROM SiteTree_versions WHERE ID = YOUR_ID;

If the deleted page has subpages, get a list of all subpage IDs and repeat the above step (replace YOUR_ID with the parent’s SiteTree_versions.RecordID):

SELECT a.* FROM SiteTree_versions a WHERE a.ParentID = YOUR_ID AND a.Version = (SELECT max(b.Version) FROM SiteTree_versions b WHERE b.RecordID = a.RecordID);

If the deleted page is a custom page (i.e. Product extends Page) and has some extra fields in it you’ll need to copy that too into the required table (Rreplace YOUR_ID with the SiteTree_Versions.ID):

INSERT INTO Product (ID, Name, Description) SELECT RecordID, Name, Description FROM Product_versions WHERE ID = (SELECT max(ID) FROM Product_versions WHERE RecordID = (SELECT RecordID FROM SiteTree_versions WHERE ID = YOUR_ID));

Nerd Nite

franklin — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 15:36:29 +0000

Nerd Nite is an informal gathering at which nerds get together for nerdery of all sorts (well, mostly presentations and drinking). Nerds and non-nerds alike gather to meet, drink and learn something new. Born in Boston and fostered in New York, Nerd Nite has spread to Austin, TX, Munich, Germany, Washington DC and has just reached Chicago, Wellington, and San Francisco!

Was there last week and I can say it’s fun… definitely going to be there next time!
