Board ID'S - Posted By gray929 (gray929) on 10th Jan 08 at 12:50am
Not sure if this is a bug or not, but I deleted a board, and then I tried to use the same id, and it said it's already in use. Can you only use the same id once?

Hmm...it does seem to happen, checking my test board. Probably one for Ross, this - he'll know if that is the case or not {Smile}

I think the answer will be yes... to do with being able to restore a board in the future! {Wink}

Yup. Deleting a board doesn't remove it from the server, just marks it as deleted. This way if a cracker got into your account and deleted everything then it could still all be restored.

Always thinking ahead. Thanks.
