Recover previous version of website

    Hi there,

    I’ve seen to manage myself to go down a rabbit hole of unnecessary changes on my site.

    It started with me wanting to upload a video using a URL to my site. But I wasn’t able to because of an issue with Jetpack and not having a connection. However, when I tried to open my website in a new window (and my phone) it was working) I use an Elementor plugin to edit my website on a single page (I hope I’m explaining myself, I’m not a web designer, hence this problem)

    I followed a tutorial that recommended deactivating my plugins except the Jetpack one and activating a default theme from WordPress, and this is where all my problems started.

    My website changed and I couldn’t find my way back to my previous elementor/web design. I tried researching for solutions on how to go back and was not successful. So by freaking out more, I decided to use another template and work on my web really quick, but it’s been taking me too long to understand what I’m supposed to do and make everything back to normal.

    TL;DR: Is there a way to go back to a previous version of my ‘Elementor’ designed website? after activating and working on a new WordPress theme? – I have a backup from Sept. with the plugin ‘UpdraftPlus Backup/Restore’ but not sure how to use it. I need help :(

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: Yes
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to moderators and staff)

    update: problem solved! I was able to use the Sept. backup for anyone curious.
