We were able to do a partial restore from a backup on 9/1/2020 and merge it with the new attachments since September 17, 2020.
I'm glad you could recover as much as you did, but which is the period where we should look for missing attachments? I don't think there's a need to replace everyone, but it would be reassuring to know which threads to look at if you felt that some of your contributions should still be available.

The only thing you can do is re-attach them to your post by editing it to get it back in the database.

Okay, I edited viewtopic.php?f=5&t=17727&p=67379#p67379 where the formerly attached ZIP file did not show up any more.

I attached it once again. Now it shows up two times. The former attachement reappears:

ATTACHMENTS
CC64 to Pedal Expressions.zip
(2.31 KiB) Not downloaded yet
CC64 to Pedal Expressions.zip
(2.31 KiB) Downloaded 65 times

Same with viewtopic.php?f=3&t=18822&p=74605#p74605 . After re-attaching the JPG file, it shows up twice.

You need to go in and remove one of the attachments from the attachments tab. I edited the first one and now it only shows one file.
