如何从 Google Cloud Platform 下载 WordPress 文件

Question

I have a client's website build on WordPress and hosted on Google cloud host. Now I want to backup it before developing the new website for him. Is there any way to download all files as a zip or any other option?

Answer 1

You have several ways. Two of them already suggested by @John Hanley ;

1. If you have access to the GCP console you can create a disk snapshot of a VM running Wordpress (most convinient and easy - also reliable).
2. If you just have SSH access to the VM - just manually backup all the files & database
3. Use one of many available back-up/migration plugins.
