PloneDeepTrashcan

PloneDeepTrashcan allows contents to be trashed in a repository. A trashed content can be restored in its original folder.

Project Description

PloneDeepTrashcan keeps documents that were trashed (not deleted) in a central trashcan.

PloneDeepTrashcan keeps a reference to the original folder for all content moved to its trashcan. The reference is not kept for content moved to the member trashcan by PloneTrashcan, but it is simple to extend PloneTrashcan in this direction.

Besides the usual "cut", "copy", "paste" and "delete", users have the possibility to "trash" content. Trashing content will put it in the deep trashcan.

As all trashed documents for all users are kept in one deep trashcan, access is restricted by the "DeepTrashcan: Recover content" permission.

The "contents" tab of the trashcan has a "recover" action. Selecting multiple documents and clicking on "recover" will recover them to their original place after confirmation. Documents that don't have a reference to the original folder they were deleted from can not be recovered like this, but have to be copied and pasted.
