In this quick tutorial, we will show you all you need to know about backup PrestaShop, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>How to back up your PrestaShop\u2019s file and database?<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>How to restore your PrestaShop database?<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>What should you be aware of when doing the backup?<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Why should you care about backing up your PrestaShop store?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Let\u2019s explore!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>How To Properly Backup PrestaShop?<\/h2>\n<p>A comprehensive PrestaShop backup would require you to back up your two most important assets:<strong> your PrestaShop files and database.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>#1. Backup files<\/h3>\n<p>First, it's important to save copies of your PrestaShop files. These files include the code that makes your online store work, along with your custom designs, pictures, and other important stuff.<\/p>\n<h4>Step 1: Copy your files<\/h4>\n<p>To back up your files, ensure that your shop folder is copied to a different location. While it is possible to copy the files to another folder on your server, we highly recommend that you make an additional copy of your files on another computer in case of server failure or data loss.<\/p>\n<p>To do so, you will need to connect to your server using an SSH, FTP, or RDP connection, depending on the type of server and the hosting provider you are using. Once connected, you can copy the files to another location and then download them onto your local computer.<\/p>\n<p>If you are using SSH, you can use the <strong>scp<\/strong> or <strong>rsync<\/strong> command to back up your shop folder from one server to another. For instance, if you want to back up from a remote server to your local machine (or the one you are currently connected to), you can employ the <strong>scp<\/strong> command as follows:<\/p>\n<p>scp -r user@host:\/var\/www\/prestashop_folder_path \/local_path_for_backup\/<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can use the rsync command, which is also a powerful tool for file transfer (you can check the rsync man page for additional information):<\/p>\n<p>rsync -avz user@host:\/var\/www\/prestashop_folder_path \/local_path_for_backup\/<\/p>\n<p>Keep in mind that this process may take several hours to complete, depending on the number of files you have and your internet connection. However, if you are an advanced user with complete access to your server, you can speed up the process effectively by compressing your files before downloading, which we will show you next.<\/p>\n<h4>Step 2: Compress your PrestaShop files before downloading<\/h4>\n<p>As we were saying, downloading the entire PrestaShop folder one file at a time can be a time-consuming task. So if you can run commands on your server, you can compress all your content into a single archive file and download this one file only:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For Windows-based servers, you will need remote desktop access. Once you are logged into your remote environment, navigate to your www folder using Windows Explorer. From there, you can compress all its contents into a ZIP file, which will make it easier to download.<\/li>\n<li>For Linux-based servers, you will need to access your server terminal using SSH. After logging in, navigate to your folder and use the command below to create a TAR file:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>tar -czf &lt;file_name&gt;.tar &lt;folder_to_save&gt;<\/p>\n<p>For example, if you want to create a backup of your HTML files, you would use:<\/p>\n<p>tar -czf backup.tar \/var\/www\/html<\/p>\n<p>Once your archive is ready, you can then copy it to your computer or any other safe location.<\/p>\n<h3>#2. Backup database<\/h3>\n<p>Besides your files, you would need to back up the database of your PrestaShop as well. A good PrestaShop database backup should ideally give you a SQL file including both the structure and the content of each table in the database.<\/p>\n<p>There are indeed tons of ways to back up your PrestaShop database (e.g. via a PrestaShop backup module), but we will only cover the two most common methods in this quick tutorial.<\/p>\n<h3>#1. Method 1: Use MySQL in the Command Line<\/h3>\n<p>The easiest way to make a full backup is using a tool called mysqldump. Here's how:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Open a command prompt on Windows or Linux.<\/li>\n<li>Type this command:<br \/>\nmysqldump yourdatabasename &gt; dump.sql (Replace &#8220;yourdatabasename&#8221; with your actual database name)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>You might need to provide login details. If so, use this longer command:<\/p>\n<p>mysqldump &#8211;host=&lt;IP_or_hostname&gt; &#8211;user=&lt;user&gt; &#8211;password &#8211;single-transaction &#8211;create-options &#8211;extended-insert &#8211;complete-insert yourdbname &gt; dump.sql<\/p>\n<p>If you don't know your database name or login details, you can find them in these files:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>For back up PrestaShop 1.6: Look in config\/settings.inc.php<\/li>\n<li>For backup PrestaShop 1.7 and later: Check app\/config\/parameters.php<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>#2. Method 2: Using phpMyAdmin<\/h3>\n<p>Many hosting providers offer phpMyAdmin, which is another way to backup your PrestaShop database through. Here\u2019s the detailed instructions:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Log into phpMyAdmin<\/li>\n<li>Select your PrestaShop database<\/li>\n<li>Click the &#8220;Export&#8221; tab<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure id=\"attachment_80819\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-80819\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-80819\" src=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/prestashop-backup-using-phpmyadmin.webp\" alt=\"prestashop backup using phpmyadmin\" width=\"750\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/prestashop-backup-using-phpmyadmin.webp 1001w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/prestashop-backup-using-phpmyadmin-300x125.webp 300w, https:\/\/litextension.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/prestashop-backup-using-phpmyadmin-768x319.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-80819\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Export PrestaShop backup in the SQL format<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">4.

If you have sensitive data, consider using encryption tools like 7-Zip, VeraCrypt, or GPG (GNU Privacy Guard) to encrypt your PrestaShop backup files before storing them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Verify and test<\/strong>: Regularly check backup integrity by performing test restorations in a staging environment. Keep detailed documentation of your backup process for quick recovery if needed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>When Should You Perform Backup PrestaShop?<\/h2>\n<p>Performing a PrestaShop backup is crucial task in many circumstances. Below is a few cases when you backing up your PrestaShop store is a must, not a plus:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Before you migrate to another platform<\/strong>: A complete backup would allow you to transfer all your data, including products, customer information, order history, and customizations, without risking data loss or corruption during the migration process.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prior to performing a <a href=\"https:\/\/litextension.com\/prestashop-migration-tool\/prestashop-upgrade.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PrestaShop upgrade<\/a><\/strong>: Having a backup before updating PrestaShop allows you to easily revert to the previous working version if issues arise. This minimizes downtime and protects your store from potential data loss during the update process.<\/li>\n<li><strong>As part of your regular security routine<\/strong>: Regular backups ensure you're prepared for unforeseen events like server crashes, hardware failures, or natural disasters. With a recent copy of your entire PrestaShop store, you can quickly recover and minimize the impact on your business operations.<\/li>\n<li><strong>When planning to test new features or designs<\/strong>: Before experimenting with new features, modules, or design changes, remember to create a backup to set up a safe testing environment without risking your live store.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<style>#sp-ea-80823 .spcollapsing { height: 0;
