responding to someone accidently/maliciously deleting entries in a 'database'

JSA All Messages By This Member #43785 Hello, our group had a problem on April 24 where someone deleted all the entries in a 'leaderboard' database listing progress made on a very hard puzzle since about 2008/2009.? All that you see when you look at the database is the date April 24 when changes were made and the empty database with headings of columns but no rows. Asking for anyone who knows how filies are handled: 1. Are any of the files/photos/databases backed up in any sense at groups.io -- do they have the files from a week ago, for example, and if so who would I contact? 2. I don't know how these databases work but I was wondering if possible there is an "undo" feature like in Excel -- I am first just thinking of scenarios to recover the data. 3. Is there a way to make the databases "write only" or "read only" for the future? 4.? Is there a way to determine the member who did this or to definitively determine the members who logged in on April 24th?? ?Sometimes files say who edited or uploaded something but in database section it just shows the date the way I'm looking at it. My priority first is 1 & 2? if there are suggestions for data recovery which probably has come up before in this forum. Thank you all for your patience with all the questions. John Abbott

It will have a line for each deletion, findable using the "Deleted Row" action, of the form "User <email address>deleted row id xx of table TableName via web." Unless you've exported the database recently, it's gone.? You should read up on database options in the Members Manual, including the properties you can add when creating one.

iisentaku All Messages By This Member #43793 开云体育 Greetings, The problem of someone erasing / deleting a group’s material — and, the possibility of recovering it, or not — is enough to cause sleepless nights. Our group tends to download stuff, and keeps a separate database on another site, to create redundancy…but then, we have been through something similar in the Yahoo days. ?databases are not a specialty topic for me, by any means, so I am just thinking aloud here, in the hopes that either a viable option will be presented or a helpful idea will emerge. As an Owner / Moderator / Group Member of a group, I wonder: — In this group’s specific database loss case, do others (Owners, Moderators, Members) of this group also have not only capability to add / edit to all aspects of the database, and also the option / ability to download the database? — If others are permitted such capabilities, I wonder if someone else — specifically another signed-in user — may have recently downloaded a version of it? ? If so, unless it were very recent you might not be able to repopulate the database with the most up-to-date data, but perhaps such a version would be far better than no data at all. ? My two-bits Nicholas Nicholas Smith Please consider the environment?before printing this e-mail.
