OK, file this under the Doh! category. 🙄 I was doing some optimizing and being as I’m a little tired and distracted, I selected about a dozen products and accidentally hit delete instead of “make public.” Gah! I think they were mostly backgrounds - which automatically get flagged for optimization even if they’re used every day - so I’m hoping I didn’t delete something popular. I know there’s no way to get them back, but is there any way to get a list of what I accidentally deleted so I can re-upload them? I’m guessing the answer is no, but just thought I’d ask.
Perhaps I’ll go take a nap now…
There should be an undo option after choosing delete. Some software can do this. We should have Zazzle add this feature to their creators’ wish list. I keep MS Word documents with details on products contained in each collection—titles, descriptions, tags, and photos of each product. They come in handy at times.

In some other thread on this topic someone suggested a trash folder where deleted stuff would live for a limited amount of time - I think that’s an excellent idea.
I do have records of all of my published products, which I could compare to the ones I’ve posted to find what’s missing. But honestly, it would probably take more time than it’s worth to figure out what I deleted! Gah!

If you have a vague idea, you might be able to find them via Pinterest if you shared them?

Not a bad idea, but mostly it’s the backgrounds that I’m concerned about (which I don’t share on Pinterest.) I have them all in a folder on my PC, but there are thousands of them and it would take me a lifetime to figure out which ones are missing. Sigh. Guess I’ll just consider it a lesson learned - don’t try to do 3 things at the same time!
When I am tired and distracted, I take a nap - a nice long one!

Ha! Sounds like a good idea! Clearly, trying to work through it wasn’t as “productive” as I thought! 😓
