Hi --
Short version: I made an error assigning a discussion. Students had already posted, which I didn't realize when I deleted it. Can I get their posts back?
Longer version: I have two sections of one class crosslisted.
Each week, I assign a copy of the discussion to each section (e.g, discussion - section 1; discussion - section 2).
Last week, I inadvertently assigned two copies of the discussion to one section. (e.g., Section 1 could see both discussions in the module.)
Students from that section apparently responded to both discussions. (e.g., some posted in discussion - section 1, others in discussion - section 2)
I realized my mistake. And went to correct it, not realizing there were posts in both copies of the discussion! I deleted the version that wasn't supposed to be there and in the process deleted at least two students' posts.
Any chance I can get the deleted version of the discussion back?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Fortunately, yes if you delete the whole discussion (not individual posts). You can restore it by adding /undelete to the end of your course link
E.g yourschool.instructure.com/courses/123456/undelete
