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)
- Order from Store → Website Backup.
- Connect your site: FTP/SFTP credentials for files, database host + user for MySQL.
- 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.
