What's a backup copy and how to use it?

In WebWave - website builder with no coding  - every day at 3:00 am a backup copy of all websites is made and  is kept for 30 days. In addition, whenever you publish a website, backup copies are saved, so you can restore a website in the builder.  

If you have changed some elements on your website and have saved them, but you are not happy with the outcome, your best option is to restore a backup copy and save the time you would spend on recreating the project.

  • The last save from 7-14 days back
  • The last save from 15-21 days back
