Hello!

That’s unfortunate and hope the following post will help:

How to regenerate FAQ and TOS pages?

Interesting. How did you manage to delete those topics? You shouldn’t be allowed to delete them in the UI. First, let’s see if the topics are really gone. ./launcher enter app rails c Topic.with_deleted.exists?(SiteSetting.guidelines_topic_id) Topic.with_deleted.exists?(SiteSetting.tos_topic_id) If the topics are really gone, create two new topics in the Staff category and assign the topic ids in the rails console to the site settings.

@Thomas_G Hallo! Thanks for your help.
I checked the existence of the pages.

Topic.with_deleted.exists?(SiteSetting.guidelines_topic_id)
Topic.with_deleted.exists?(SiteSetting.tos_topic_id)
Topic.with_deleted.exists?(SiteSetting.privacy_topic_id)

The results are all true so I tried to recover.

faq = Topic.with_deleted.find(SiteSetting.guidelines_topic_id)
tos = Topic.with_deleted.find(SiteSetting.tos_topic_id)
pp = Topic.with_deleted.find(SiteSetting.privacy_topic_id)

faq.recover!
tos.recover!
pp.recover!

The recover succeeded on terminal but /faq, /toc and /privacy showed error.
Then I checked topic_id of those topics from terminal and set urls to /admin/site_settings/category/legal.

Now the pages are fine. Thank you!
