DokuWiki Deleted User Content

[saint]

Hi team,

I recently went to do some general clean-up of my users, and deleted one of them along the way.

However, the user had some content in DokuWiki. Some of this content persisted after the deletion and was fine.

But, some of the content I created and had translocated in various parts of the pages in DokuWiki. E.g. I created this section, and then re-used the content of this section across other pages since the same content doesn't change and gives good context and reference for those other pages.

When I access the pages that had translocated those sections, I get the following:

The error logs say:

Is there any way to re-show this data? Thank you.

This needs to be reported upstream at DokuWiki => https://github.com/dokuwiki/dokuwiki/issues
Also, the error message states "More info has been written to the DokuWiki error log."
This might have more details.

Maybe, as a hotfix, you can re-create that user with the same username and details so DokuWiki get a filled userinfo array again?

@james Thank you, the DokuWiki error log had the errors I shared above, which is why I suspected this may have been the cause/culprit?

I used Cloudron's SSO to login, and not the local DokuWiki's users. If I were to re-create the user in Cloudron, I presume the IDs would be different so it wouldn't be the same "user" in DokuWiki?

Hello @saint
I will try to reproduce this.
