Our review table just suffered some major data loss when I tried to be clever and not do a backup prior to manually re-associating some dutch reviews. Basically every review in the entire network is currently residing in Armorama's Armor/AFV section. So if you are wondering why a link takes you there or why you can't find any in other areas that is why.
Hopefully I can get this resolved in quick order but with 1937 reviews it may be a while if I have to edit them line by line.

Just recently I've learned what FUBAR means in english, very useful...
Good luck with setting the reviews straight Jim!
Cheers

Ah, I see, now that I've checked the MG homepage. No problem, and good luck in getting it sorted out.

I have restored a handful of the most recent reviews. However this is going to be a long painstaking process to do the rest. I will probably have to enlist help from the staff in editing some SQL files so the updates can happen more quickly.

I'm correcting all of mine at the moment.
Just something to watch out for - They are set to the 'Default' Value 'User_Purchased' - so, if they're vendor supplied, they have to be changed...

SQL... that's my game, baby!!
Jim, gimme a shout if you require my assistance.
Ahhh, the age old whoopsie of not backing up before making changes... don't worry, boss, I'm sure it's happened to every since IT geek in eternity - and then some! While working in the IT department of a dairy company I once rolled out changes to a remote branch without ensuring that I had a recent backup, and accidentally dropped their products table! Took me the whole night to fix my mistake... :-)
BTW, noticed a wingy-thing review over on HFM, guess we'd better all be on the lookout for those

Hate to say - I've tried to help but can't. There are SQL errors on MG review page.
I can't edit anything on Armorama and I know there are some over there that are MG reviews.
