    Can you reinstate a deleted system/umbraco data type?

    Hi all,

    Bit of an odd one this, we have somehow managed to delete an out of the box data type via the back end (date picker with time).

    Aside from the fact that Umbraco should not let us do that... do you know of any way to reinstate a datatype?

    We tried manually inserting into the DB but restrictions have stopped us from doing so.

    The next idea is to re install the current Umbraco version again, but not sure if that would help.

    Anyone have any experience with this?

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    What do you mean exactly? You can't select it as a propertyeditor?

    Hi Joep,

    We've managed to resolve this actually, sorry if I didn't go into enough detail.

    What happened was a team member deleted a Data Type (Date Picker with time) that was an out of the box/Umbraco data type with an id of -36 on our development environment.

    Even though none of our Document Types were using this data type we could not Build Models from that point onwards for some reason 😫

    There was no way in the back office to reinstate/"un-delete" this and left us with our only option of poking the values back into the database... crisis averted 😅
