This guide explains how to restore an automatic backup of an Infomaniak Web Application (Joomla, Drupal, Typo3, PrestaShop, ownCloud, etc.) included in the paid Web Hosting plans.

Introduction

• This does not concern WordPress, which can be backed up and then restored via:
  • automatic backups for hosting,
  • extensions that allow you to manually create a complete backup, including an easy-to-use reinstallation file.
• On the FTP server, the files corresponding to the different backups are available under /application-backups/.

To access the backups of your Apps:

1. Click here to access the hosting & website management section in your Infomaniak Manager (❓: help).
2. Click on the action menu ⋮ located to the right of the item in question.
3. Click on Restore a backup:
   
4. Click on the desired type of restoration (Web Application).

7. Choose the date to which you want to revert and click the Next button.
   • If the Backups page is empty, this probably means that backups are disabled or that the installation is too recent.
8. Choose whether you prefer to…
   1. …delete existing files before restoring the backup (recommended).
   2. …replace files with the same name and keep new files created since the backup date.
9. Click the Restore button to start restoring the Web Application data.
