Restore trashed page from API

[celfred]

Hello,

I have a feeling I'm missing an easy thing here (again...). If I trash a page from API with :

mypage->trash()

Is there a simple way to restore it if needed ? I can do it in back-end, but I'd like to do it through API with something like

mypage->restore()

 but this doesn't exit  

So if you can give me a little help on that, I'd appreciate. Thanks in advance !

// Grab a page from the trash and restore it
$trashedPage = $pages->get(1234);
$pages->restore($trashedPage);

As always in this community, a quick, straight to the point and perfect answer. Many thanks to you @kongondo

Sorry for missing it in the docs. I promise I searched for it but I was stuck in the $page part of the API and didn't see the restore()... My bad. Just to mention, I typed 'restore' in the search box (top left), but the API linked in your post above didn't appear in the results  

Anyway, the answer was quite simple (just as I thought, in the PW 'philosophy') and I'm happy with that. Thanks again !

No worries .  Btw search tip: Use this one instead: E.g., searching for restore trash page or restore trash page api returns $pages->restore() as the second result  and your question as the fifth .

There's no reason to feel sorry, we're a helpful bunch here

On a sidenote: you can try the "PW custom Google search engine" I've configured some time ago: https://cse.google.com/cse/publicurl?cx=013706179141317928628:dendm4c3gpq

I have used the title of this forum thread ("Restore trashed page from API") and the first result in this very thread here, and the second one is the API reference page for trash - at the bottom you'll see "related" API links, one of them being "restore". I have bookmarked this custom search so I can simply type "PW", hit enter, and search across a variety of PW-sites/resources.

edit: kongondo was faster

Yeah. I've had it in my signature for ages (so, you see, we are not so clever ) . I can't remember who created this particular CSE though. I also have it bookmarked in my bookmarks bar for easy access.

@bernhard,

@dragan's is different (e.g. it has image search in there) from the one I use which I think has been around a lot longer .

[bernhard]

Ah, sorry, didn't know that. I'm not using either one. I thought there was just one search and he missed that sentence.. thanks for clarifying.

[dragan]

Yeah, although I guess the main difference is that I have added other URLs to search too, like pw-recipes etc.
