Reverting Plugins/restore within WordPress
-
After backing up my WordPress installation (MySQL databases via phpMyAdmin, and the entire front end website via FTP) I updated a handful of plugins, which resulted in an important aspect of the website to fail.
The plugin I believe is responsible is ‘Advanced Custom Fields’, updated from 2.0.5 to 3.5.8.1. When I updated this plugin I got the notification:
“Advanced Custom Fields v3.5.8.1 requires a database upgrade (why?). Please backup your database, then click Upgrade Database.” This was completed successfully.
As I’ve been unable to solve the problem I’m looking to restore my WordPress installation from the backup. My question is what will be required to do this? Do I need to restore files from the FTP backup as well as the various mySQL databases?
Thanks for any help.
