Hello,

I wanted to delete low ctr thumbs so i put by default Delete thumb if it has more then 1000 views and TR less then 0.05 but it deleted the best thumbs instead of deleting the worst.

What can i do?

1. find thumbs in status 'marked for deletion' and set it back to active

2. PM me DB and ids which was deleted wrongly as you think and I'll check why they were deleted

1. done but 2/3 were deleted.

2. I really don't know which ids were deleted. They were deleted because i used your option in rotation - specials: Delete low-CTR thumbs with default settings which in fact delete best thumbs ctr.

I'm asking host if they have a database backup, do i also need to restore thumbs images?

2\3 - how many exactly ? 100 images ?

Yes, if they were deleted.

If you don't know what ids where deleted - how do you know they were 'best thumbs' ?

More than 2000 thumbs.

Because i used to take a look at the main page and all the thumbs i used to see at the top aren't here anymore. And when i checked the remaining thumbs maked for deletion i saw best ctr thumbs.

And also the prod of the site dropped a lot.

It deleted 200 galleries each 10 minutes - so it should've been 100 minutes since you pressed it ...

Anyway - ok, let's test it, we can restore that DB locally or at any other domain and check what thumbs are going to be deleted.

I'm not going to do the test a second time. I loose a lot of traffic. I'm asking host if they have backup, if they don't i'm screwed.

Please do the test and fix the issue.

I need your DB and your settings to do exactly the same test.

I did test on my test DB and it looks fine.

For now i'm restoring backups and copying image files.

Should i stop cronjobs?

Restore DB takes a minute maximum for stopping cron doesn't matter.
