The Files option backs up everything in your public_html directory, including WordPress core files, themes, plugins, media uploads, and any custom code or configuration files you have added. The Databases option exports all MySQL databases linked to your hosting account, preserving posts, pages, comments, user accounts, plugin settings, and other dynamic content. Backing up both together is strongly recommended because a website needs its files and its database to function correctly. If you only back up files without the database, you will lose all your content; if you only back up the database, you will lose your themes, plugins, and uploads.

The tool will overwrite your current site with the backup contents, so always create a fresh backup before restoring an older one in case you need to undo the restore. Since backups older than 12 hours are automatically removed from the server, download important backups to your local computer or cloud storage for long-term <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">safekeeping. Make it a habit to backup restore files databases before major changes such as WordPress core updates, theme switches, plugin installations, or manual code edits.

A good routine is to create a full backup (files plus databases) before any major change: WordPress updates, theme switches, or plugin installations.<\/p>\n<p>Test your backups occasionally. A backup is only useful if it restores correctly, so once in a while restore one to a staging copy and confirm the site works. Keep at least two recent full backups off-server at all times. For busy sites, back up weekly; for mostly static sites, monthly is enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One last tip: after downloading a backup, verify the file size looks reasonable \u2014 a full backup of an active site should rarely be just a few kilobytes. A tiny file often means the backup failed silently.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes.
