  Hello! In late 2019, I wrote a blog post titled ‘2019 Reflections’ on WordPress. I think I had trashed it, but now I do not see it in the ‘trashed’ section. I am pretty confident that I did not delete, but in case I did, I need to retrieve the post back. Could anyone please help me retrieve that post back?

  Hi there!

  The files in the trash are automatically deleted after 30 days and once they are deleted, they can’t be restored anymore.

  For future reference, if you don’t want to keep your posts public but you do not want to delete them, switch them to drafts instead of trashing them.
