    I have mentioned that I want the ability to revive a deleted string if one side has not deleted the string and has posted again on the string. What hook would I use to add an action before the message is posted to do something like this:

    
$query ="SELECT meta_id FROM wp_postmeta WHERE post_id = %s and <code>meta_key</code> = '_fep_delete_by_%s'";

$queryp1 = $wpdb->prepare($query, array($post->post_parent, $post->post_author));
if (!empty($queryp1)) {
	delete_post_meta($queryp1,'_fep_delete_by_' . $post->post_author);	
}	

$queryp2 = $wpdb->prepare($query, array($post->post_parent, $post->ID));
if (!empty($queryp2)) {
	delete_post_meta($queryp2,'_fep_delete_by_' . $post->ID);	
}

    I think that would do it. So is there a hook that I can use to facilitate this?

    I said string when I should have said thread but I think you can get the idea.

    A better method perhaps:

    
			$participants = fep_get_participants( $post->post_parent );
	
			foreach( $participants as $participant ) 
			{
				$query ="SELECT meta_id FROM wp_postmeta WHERE post_id = %s and <code>meta_key</code> = '_fep_delete_by_%s'";

				$queryp1 = $wpdb->prepare($query, array($post->post_parent, $participant));
				if (!empty($queryp1)) {
					delete_post_meta($queryp1,'_fep_delete_by_' . $participant);	
				}	
			}

    This works to refresh the thread and revive the deleted participants if placed in functions.php

    
    add_action('save_post', 'undelete_thread');
    function undelete_thread($post_id) {
        $post = get_post($post_id);
        if ($post->post_type = 'fep_message'){
            $participants = fep_get_participants( $post->post_parent );
            foreach( $participants as $participant )        
            {
                delete_post_meta($post->post_parent,'_fep_delete_by_'. $participant );    
            }
        }
    }

    You can change if ($post->post_type = 'fep_message'){ with if ($post->post_type == 'fep_message' && $post->post_parent){
    This way it will not run unnecessarily for parent message

    I suppose you mean:

    if ($post->post_type = ‘fep_message’ && $post->post_parent != 0){

    That will be better. Thanks.

    Please use following

    
    add_action('save_post', 'undelete_thread');
    function undelete_thread($post_id) {
        $post = get_post($post_id);
        if ($post->post_type == 'fep_message' && $post->post_parent){
            $participants = fep_get_participants( $post->ID );
            foreach( $participants as $participant )        
            {
                delete_post_meta($post->post_parent,'_fep_delete_by_'. $participant );    
            }
        }
    }
