    I am trying to see them all. The mods on one of the sites have the abilities to only soft delete posts. And I know there are quite a few soft deleted ones, but I have no idea how to view them all. But, I know I have done it before

    Edit you can also see more than 4 per page by modifying the URL. Change the pp= to something larger:

    Example
    Code:
    http://www.myforum.com.com/moderation.php?do=viewposts&type=deleted&pp=4&daysprune=-1&sort=dateline&order=desc&page=2
    Code:
    http://www.myforum.com/moderation.php?do=viewposts&type=deleted&pp=99&daysprune=-1&sort=dateline&order=desc&page=1

    This is very helpful. And I will now probably make a nice lil mod or something for this :) Mucho gracias Dan ....Thanks alot man this was giving me a headache .. Oh and @ Scotty A soft deleted post is a post that is removed from view but a link is left behind. It is still in the database just removed from the sight of normal members. Opposed to a deleted post which is completely removed from the database :)
