How to back up and restore WordPress
Use WordPress Toolkit or Plesk Backup Manager before making risky changes.
Backups protect you from plugin failures, accidental deletes, and bad theme edits.
Back up with WordPress Toolkit
- Login to Plesk.
- Open WordPress.
- Select the site.
- Click the backup option if it is available on your plan.
Back up with Backup Manager
- Open Backup Manager.
- Create a backup or select an existing backup.
- Restore files and databases together for a complete WordPress rollback.
When to ask support
Open a ticket before restoring if you are not sure which date to choose or if only one file needs recovery.
