  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Purging a site completely from the server

Hi,

We have a clients WPB site which failed to publish, on their 2nd attempt the backend information was blanked, basically the published site still exists but the WPB interface has reverted to the "Select your website topic" page. We've tried restoring a backup and while the front page restores, the WPB page retains whatever was on it prior to the restore. We've also tried removing the domain completely and restoring with the exact same result. I'm assuming this WPB data isn't being cleared/overwritten when the site is deleted/restored. Is there any way to resolve this? We have tested with other sites and they restore perfectly so it seems specific to the one site.

If this isn't possible, is it possible to restore a backup for one domain to another domain (EG restore domain1.com to domain2.com)? If we could do that then in theory we could restore it to another site create a snapshot on that site and then import that snapshot to the original site.

This is on Plesk Panel version 11.0.9 if relevant.
WPB version 11.0.10

Hi, WPB's site snapshot is not linked with domain. You can try to restore it to another site.
But it looks like your WPB database is corrupted. I think that best option is will be to contact with Parallels Technical support...

Also Plesk 11.0.9 is very outdated. For better stability I recommend you update it to the latest stable version (WPB will be also updated).
