Restore deleted page from backup

    How can I bring an accidentally-deleted page from an earlier backup into my current site? I somehow managed to delete my home page while working on inside pages for a couple of days. I’ve found the page in a backup from three days ago… is there any way to import that page into my current WP?

    Hello,

    I am sorry for the delay in response.

    If it is a different website where you want to restore that backup then.
    Make sure the backup you created a backup of both directories and database. If even one is not present then the migration will break.

    If you are using a remote location then you will need to add that location and sync it. We have given the option to sync in the Backup history tab and in the Add Backup location form.

    If you created a backup on a local folder then what you need to do is copy the backup from oldwesbsite/wp-content/backuply/backups/yourbackupfile.tar.gz to newwesbsite/wp-content/backuply/backups/
    And you need to copy the info file too which would be of the same name as the backup file with .PHP extension and will be located in oldwebsite/wp-content/backuply/backups-info.
    Once you do that you will find the backup in your backup history tab and you have to click restore and wait for the restore to complete.

    Do let us know if you need further assistance

    Thank you for that. I went ahead and just restored the earlier backup, but will keep these instructions for future reference.

    It sounded like your instructions were to restore a full backup onto a different WP installation which is useful information, but did not seem to address my issue which asked how to restore a single page from a backup set. Feel free to mark the issue solved if you feel that would be appropriate.
