Any way to retrieve user info that is been rejected?

Is there a way to see rejected user info details and possible re-initiate the join request? My co-worker accidentally rejected an user who applied for membership.

Thank you in advance

    I'm not sure, but I have a hunch the data is still stored in the DB. Let's look at the application process.

    • Someone signs up on your site (/entry/register)
    • This means the entry controller is handling the logic (/applications/dashboard/controllers/class.entrycontroller.php)
    • Register calls the method as determined by your configuration. (I am assuming you are using the Approval method)
    • RegisterApproval() calls UserModel::Register()
    • The user model is defined in the dashboard application (/applications/dashboard/models/class.usermodel.php)
    • This calls InsertForApproval()
    • This saves the user in the DB and then sets the approval role.
    • Now, to decline an application, we click on Decline in /user/applicants which maps to the user controller (/applications/dashboard/controllers/class.usercontroller.php
    • This calls the UserModel::Decline method
    • This calls the delete method on the user
    • This deletes all associated content with the user.
    • Then all the data for the User record is cleared to deleted defaults

    Looks like you should be able to restore from the LogModel. Check out https://forums.example.com/dashboard/log/edits
