How to restore your site to an earlier setting

    Hi there, I installed a plugin and was implementing it when suddenly, something extremely weird happened to my site: https://www.eboot.in
    My navigation bar now suddenly has my logo on every page and I can’t seem to reverse this. I deactivated the plugin and every other plugin as well as restoring to an earlier revision of the page through the revision option but still no dice. I fear something may have gone wrong with the theme itself. Is there a way to restore the site to, say what it was 2 months ago? Or an earlier working version of the website? Help needed ASAP.
    Thanks

    Have you tried deleting that plugin?

    I did. I kinda fixed the issue by deleting the logo that was appearing in the navigation bar. But I’d really like my logo to be there. Everytime I upload it however, it reverts back to being that humongous picture.

    Is the issue resolved now?

    It is, in a sense. I’m still worried I might have messed up something else somewhere in the process. Had to delete a few plugins and play around with the theme settings. I’d still like to know how to restore my site to an earlier point if issues like this occur in the future. Now it can be a more general question about restoring to a past version of the site rather than this specific issue.

    Thanks.

    I’d still like to know how to restore my site to an earlier point if issues like this occur in the future.

    Couple of options to achieve that:
    – If you have good backup of your database taken prior to the problem, you can restore your database with that.

    – Alternately, you can ask your hosting provider if they have a backup of your site taken prior to the occurrence of the problem. If they do, you can ask theme to restore your site.

    Ok. Will look into both those options.
    Thanks a lot for your prompt help.
