Can you undo 'delete conversation'?

Post by chud575 »

Hi Tony,

OMG I just accidentally deleted a convo I spent hours working on with no backup. Can this be undone? If not - for gods sake - put in a confirmation screen!

Oh no! The current confirmation dialog is:

Delete 'Conversation Title'
Are you sure you want to delete this conversation?
[Delete] [Cancel]

I'll add a note that it can't be undone.

Better yet, I'll see if I can redesign the deletion so it can be undone. (But I can't promise that it can be implemented.) I'll also implement timed auto-backups.

Did you by any chance export it to CSV for localization, or copy it somewhere?

okay this is really weird - I tried to delete another convo and did in fact get the pop up. I wonder why or how this could've happened. Alright i'll let you know if it happens again

I'm sorry you lost the original conversation. At least it's been helpful to bring up because now I'll make the pop-up message clearer and add timed auto-backups.

A beta version 1.7.1b1 is available on the Pixel Crushers customer download site. It adds timed auto-backups (which default to every 10 minutes) and clarifies in the confirmation window that Delete Conversation can't be undone. If anyone needs access to the site, please PM me your Unity Asset Store invoice number.
