What is Recycle Bin?

The Recycle Bin is your safety net. With the module on, a product, category, page or blog post you delete in the admin goes to Settings → Recycle Bin and waits there (30 days by default) so you can bring it back with Restore.

What comes back on Restore

• Products return with their price, stock, status and categories as they were when deleted.
• Pages return with their old status (published or hidden).
• Categories and blog posts return with their translations.

What doesn't go to the bin

• Deleting a category together with its products and subcategories (the "delete everything inside" option) is permanent. Move or delete the products first if you might want them back.
• Orders, sellers and customers aren't covered. Cancel orders instead of deleting them.
• Anything deleted while the module was off.

Good habits

• Hide instead of delete when you might need something again: set a product to Disabled or Hidden, or a page to unpublished.
• Export before big clean-ups with Products → Product Import/Export.
