    Hello,

    Today, a friend of mine switched her Facebook page to "classic page", and all the posts she created while the page was in the "new pages experience" got deleted.

    Is there any way to recover these posts, or did they get permanently deleted so that even Facebook staff can't restore them?

    No, You can not recover your posts as well. You need to start posting again.

    Weird. I'd suggest checking the trash bin to see if her posts were moved there. She needs to switch back and then go to Setting & privacy => Activity log => Trash. If they are not there, they are gone for good.

    UPDATE: The problem has been resolved.

    A friend of this friend contacted Meta asking them if they could do something. A long and weird conversation ensued, finally they said there was nothing they could do.
    Then some time later the friend got some notification on Facebook that she can download her data as it has been restored.

    Thanks everyone for the replies.
