Webflow has a backup system in place that allows you to restore deleted sites. So, if you accidentally delete a site or make changes that you later regret, you can easily recover your work without starting from scratch. Here's how you can restore a deleted site in Webflow:
- Log in to your Webflow account and go to your Dashboard.
- On the left-hand menu, click on the "Sites" tab.
- In the "Sites" tab, you'll see a list of all your projects. Look for the "Archived" section at the bottom of the page.
- Within the "Archived" section, you should find your deleted site. It will be listed with a red "Deleted" label.
- Click on the deleted site you want to restore.
- A dialog box will appear, giving you the option to restore the site.
- Click on the "Restore" button to bring the site back.
- Once restored, the site will reappear in your list of active projects in the "Sites" tab of your Dashboard.
It's important to note that you can only restore a deleted site within 60 days of deletion. After that timeframe, the data may no longer be available for recovery.
Restoring a deleted site on Webflow is a straightforward process that can save you significant time and effort. Make sure to keep regular backups of your sites to avoid any potential loss of data.
