Don't worry about it, here is few methods to recover your deleted posts in blogger based on the copies of your post on the search engine or available in blog feeds. If you are subscribed for newsletter of your blog update then you may get from your mail inbox.
Search for Copies Cached in Search Engine
Google store cached copy of your blog post if your blog post is indexed in the google search. So you can enter your full post title in the google search by site:yourblog.com then you will see the post of your blog in the search result. Click Cached below the post title on search result.
Then you can copy the deleted post whole content or republish it again on your blog. This is good help from google side.
But you will not get comments and permalink back from the cached google result, so to get comments and original permalink back, we have to find PostID from the cached copy. For that press Ctrl + U and find the Post ID on the source page by pressing (Ctrl + F) and type post hentry like below
replace XXXXXXXX with your blog id and YYYYYYYYY with your post ID.
<div class='post hentry'>
<a name='2606849530247604243'></a>
<h3 class='post-title entry-title'>
the highlighted number is the PostID of the blog post (Your Post ID will different from above number). Then enter address below and republish. Then you can get original permalink and comments back safely.<a name='2606849530247604243'></a>
<h3 class='post-title entry-title'>

This is indeed helpful. However, it is still unclear. For example, exactly what address do I put below the ID code? And, since I cannot gain access to re-edit my cached copy, I tried by creating a new post to republish and pasting the code back into the html. It was then that I hit a major problem, since it included the whole template of the page too, including my widgets.
ReplyDeleteCan you please elaborate more on republishing the post??? Many thanks in advance.
Thank you very much, it helped me so much.
