How to recover deleted posts (by WordPress itself)?
-
After many problems with WordPress support, after many and many complains, they just have deleted my two posts. Is there a way to recover them? No need to say that MY DELETED POSTS, MY DRAFT AND PUBLISHED ARE EMPTY. Is this the “brilliant” solution to my complains…? Really…?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Let’s let jump to any conclusions. Also let’s not post into threads unless we have relevant answers that actually resolve the issues posted by the original poster, okay? -

Provided you did not create the post in the new Beep Beep Boop editor where it’s saved only on your browser, and is not auto-saved to the servers for your blog you may be able to recover a lost post or page.If the post was created on the dashboard of your own blog at Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New then you ought to be able to recover a lost post or page from revisions if needs be.

To locate draft POSTS Dashboard > Posts > All Post > Drafts

If you cannot locate a revision or restore from Trash then the content has been lost and cannot be recovered.
I recommend:
1. Always create your posts on the dashboard of your own blog at
2. Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New
3. Immediately after creating a post and entering a title click the save draft link. Thereafter, “click save draft” frequently.
4. Always allow pages to fully load before clicking any other links.
5. Never leave a post or page open for content creation or editing and walk away from it, or open another tab in the same blog and work on something else while it is still open. Save it properly and return to edit it later.
6. Use an offline blog editor so you have backups on your own computer http://en.support.wordpress.com/xml-rpc/ -

Relax… The pratimokcha user is my mother hahahaha, i’m just making a bit noise. :°P I will follow these steps, but already knowing that will not workout… I’ve been thinking in a way that WordPress itself recover from a “general data basis”, something like that. -

Your mother! Who knew? I sure didn’t. lol :DI’ve been thinking in a way that WordPress itself recover from a “general data basis”, something like that.
Sorry but that’s not possible.

Alright, let me try to calm her down (she’s very angry of course). Thank you for the explain and the ultimate, anyway. Unfortunatelly it leaves her to move to blogspot.com.Best regards,

I do not blame her for being angry. I was absolutely LIVID when this happened to me. I refuse to use the Beep Beep Boop editor. I use only the classic editor.
