Backups, rollback and recovery | CoreCMS guides

A full recovery may need both website files and a matching database backup. CoreCMS update rollback and page revisions solve different problems.

How to use it

  1. Before an update, confirm that a usable file and database backup exists.
  2. If an update fails, read the update result and any rollback information.
  3. Use the offered restore or rollback action only after identifying the intended backup.
  4. Ask Digitalogy to investigate incomplete migrations or server errors.
  5. After recovery, test forms, uploaded files, page content and sign-in.

Before you finish

Restoring older data can remove changes made after that backup. A page revision cannot restore the whole site, and a file-only backup cannot recover database records.
