Backups & Maintenance

Suggest an edit

Protect store data and plan operational changes.

What to back up

Back up your database, uploaded media, configuration and custom themes or extensions. Store recoverable copies separately from the live store.

Test restoration

Practice restoring a backup in an isolated environment. A backup you cannot restore does not provide a reliable rollback path.

Plan changes

Test updates and configuration changes on a copy of your store. Re-check checkout, order management, staff access and notifications after maintenance.
