Reverting to a project backup will revert to a previous version making it now the version shown within the project editor, and if published the new live site.

Create a backup

Tips

  • If you’re uneasey about reverting to a past backup, you can duplicate the project to retain the current version, then revert to a backup
  • Deleted files are not recovered when reverting, but you can re-upload the files and if they share the same file name as before they will automatically show where they were once used.
