# Backup/IMport

 * I deactivated “Asgaros Forum” by mistake.
    All data is gone when deactivated.
   I install again and try to recover data. 1) I tried to recover from my SQL backup
   and restored SQL table and data for Asgoras successfully. 2) However, it does
   not connect and display none. 3) Do you have any idea or advice to solve this?
   or any data backup tool/option to backup? It will be sad, if you loose all forum
   data by one night.

 * Hello [@cksong](https://wordpress.org/support/users/cksong/)
 * Deactivating the plugin does not delete any data at all – only uninstalling it.
 * Keep in mind that you also have to recover the created categories, which are 
   stored in the wp_term* tables. Otherwise you can also create new ones and update
   the parent_ids in the forum_forums table matching the new categories manually.
