Creating Backups

You can take a backup of your WordPress site through the Account Control Center. That can be done as follows:

If you are using the Legacy Interface:

2. Select WordPress Site List
3. Click the name of the WordPress site to backup
4. Select Backups
5. Click Create

If you are using the New ACC Interface:

1. Log into the Account Control Center at my.pair.com
2. In the top navigation bar, click WordPress
3. Find the side you want to backup, then click the backup icon
4. Click the Create button

The creation of the backup may take a few minutes. Once done, it will appear in the listing of Current Backups on the screen.
