simpson7647 Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Hi all, I have multiple errors with my website and stupidly clicked the 'roll back' which has restored my website to the previous version. Luckily I had downloaded the restore function so I'm wondering how do I go about restoring it with this download. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kogkalidis Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 So pity.. I would suggest that if you have backed up your files (like products and so on) make a fresh install.. Restore according to my oppinions is not the 100% solution.. Just the emergency one!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpson7647 Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 (edited) thanks for the reply. I've got multiples of the database backup in my prestashop back office from a few hours ago (before the website rolled back) and from weeks / years ago etc. Does this back up everything including products + prices etc? How would I do this too. thanks, Edited November 29, 2012 by simpson7647 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benjamin utterback Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 Hello Simpson, in order to restore it back, you not only had to have your PrestaShop files backed up, but also your mySQL database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpson7647 Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 Thanks for the reply Benjamin, I have the prestashop version I've downloaded from the back office and I also have the version I downloaded 9 days ago from my host (hostgator) Would they be okay and how would I go about restoring it please? Many thanks indeed, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjamin utterback Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 You would need to have had done a backup of your files via FTP. Did you have a mySQL database? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simpson7647 Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 Hi Benjamin, Sorry I'm unsure what you mean and don't know about a MySQL Database. All I can say and hope it's enough is that I've backed up my prestashop website via the back office as well as via my host who is hostgator. Fingers crossed that's enough ?
