Website Backup (CodeGuard) — Setup & One-Click Restore Print

  • 0

CodeGuard takes automatic daily backups of your website files and databases to independent cloud storage — so a hack, bad update or accidental deletion is a 5-minute fix, not a disaster.

Setup (10 minutes)

  1. Order from Store → Website Backup.
  2. Connect your site: FTP/SFTP credentials for files, database host + user for MySQL.
  3. The first full backup runs immediately; daily incremental backups follow automatically.

What you get

  • Daily automatic backups with version history (restore any day, not just yesterday)
  • Change monitoring — email alert when files change: an early hack warning
  • One-click restore — whole site, single files, or database only
  • Download anytime — keep an offline zip of any snapshot

Restore scenarios

  • Bad plugin update broke the site → restore yesterday's files, keep today's database.
  • Malware infection → restore the last clean snapshot (change alerts tell you exactly when infection happened), then patch the vulnerability.
  • Deleted product images → browse the snapshot and restore just that folder.

Rule of thumb: hosting backups protect against server failure; CodeGuard protects against your failures and hackers. Serious sites need both.
