1. Collect the delivery materials
Open the download page for the exact product and edition you purchased. Keep that page available while installing because it contains the authoritative backup-file link, product-specific installation checklist, training or Quick Start resources, and the default WordPress login credentials used after restoration.
Download the complete WPvivid backup file and keep an untouched copy outside the target website. Some upgrades or add-ons may also include ordinary WordPress plugin ZIP files; install those only when the product download page specifically identifies them as plugin components.
2. Prepare a fresh WordPress installation
Create a new WordPress installation on the intended domain or subdomain. “Fresh” means the installation contains no posts, pages, users, orders, media, settings, or custom work that you need to preserve. The WPvivid restore imports a complete prepared website and can replace the target site’s current database and files.
3. Restore the product with WPvivid
- Log in to the fresh WordPress dashboard using the temporary administrator created by your host.
- Go to Plugins → Add New Plugin, search for WPvivid Backup Plugin, then install and activate it.
- Open WPvivid Backup → Backup & Restore → Upload.
- Select the backup file downloaded from the product’s delivery page and wait for the upload to finish.
- Select the uploaded backup and start the restore. Keep the browser open until WPvivid reports completion.
This workflow is designed for most standard WordPress hosting, but a host’s upload limit, execution time, disk space, file permissions, firewall, or security rules can interrupt a large restore. Follow the exact checklist on the product download page when it includes a host-specific or alternate upload step.
4. Log in with the restored credentials
After restoration, the temporary administrator from the fresh installation may no longer work because the restored database includes the product’s prepared users. Return to the product download page and use the default username and password shown there. Do not copy those credentials into a support ticket or screenshot.
- Change the default administrator password after the first successful login.
- Confirm the administrator email and remove any account you do not need.
- Confirm the site URL, HTTPS, timezone, permalink structure, and email settings.
- Add only your own API keys and third-party credentials; never reuse credentials included in examples.
- Run the product’s Quick Start checklist before publishing or connecting real customer data.
5. Verify the installation and request help
Confirm that wp-admin loads, required pages open, images and styles are present, and the main product workflow works with non-sensitive test data. If restoration fails, stop and record the failed step, exact message, hosting provider, PHP version, backup filename, and WPvivid screen shown.
Submit a support ticket with the product name, WarriorPlus order ID, diagnostic details, and up to two screenshots. Crop or redact usernames, passwords, access keys, API keys, customer information, and payment details before attaching images.
