Hello, yesterday I posted an inquiry on how to achieve something that I wanted with the Nuss Theme and the Uxper Booking Plug In. It came to the conclusion that I would need code (either java or php) or another booking to achieve this. I will now breakdown what happened as clear as I can while I have a panic attack.
- Get into the website in the morning
- Spend the morning finding the string in the plugin that I would need to modify to achieve what I wanted
- Find the string I wanted
- Made a backup in Updraft to be careful
- Modify the string and hit save, website tells me there was an error and the string changes where not implemented
- Erases my changes and tries reloading the wordpress page to make sure everything is ok
- The string document is empty
- I go to the actual website, says error
- Try to restore the website using my backup in Updraft
- Download the updraft files (themes, plugins, etc)
- Updraft says error, that it could not restore
- Try to uninstall uxper and the theme and reinstall it
- Runs the themes setup wizard, the website is up again but as if it were brand new – Try to solve the Updraft issue and try again – Kicks me out of WordPress
- Manages to get back in, says multiple plugins including updraft were deactivated/eliminated because there was no plugin document for them – Reinstalled and work with the theme setup wizard and other essential plugins, the website shows again but in its default state again
- Reinstalled updraftplus, shows my backup
- Tried to restore my backup, says the website or page does not exist. 404
- Confused I go to the website, it shows the colors I established for the website and the logo I put but it says the website/page does not exist
- Check and all the rooms/images/reservations and other data is back
- However the actual entries/pages are not there
- Updraft still does not allow me to fully restore everything
Im just confused
I may have a look if needed drop a message ✨
Firstly, download your Updraft ZIP files so they are safe – and to be even safer, copy them and store them somewhere safe. Well done for creating a backup first BTW.
The Updraft ZIP files contain everything you need to restore a site – assuming you left everything as default and backed up your theme, plugins, and database? You should have a min of 4 Updraft ZIP files, correct?
So, if you actually have that. delete your WP site, and its database. Then create a new WP install, install the Updraft plugin, upload the Updraft backup ZIP files, and hit restore.
