Restoring a WordPress backup

Shifter provides an optional automated backup feature which creates an archive of your WordPress data each time you create a new deploy.

For example, as you generate the static version of your site Shifter will create a snapshot or backup of your WordPress data as well.

If you need to restore your WordPress site with one of those backups here's how you can do that.
