Hi Wole, you just need to re-upload the backup that you saved before you left. You should have a backup of both the files & database from your website, ready to restore.
Hi - unfortunately, websites are deleted after 60 days of lapsed membership. Did you take a back-up of it before you left. You can check with Site Support by clicking on the Help tab at the top of the screen, just in case.
You may try site support however the back ups are usually kept for 60 days from time your membership ceased.

Have you made a back up of your site then?
For future reference, you may like to use AIO WP Migration or Updraft plugins to back up site. UpdraftPlus is a premium and highly recommended.
I have an offline backup of the content but I couldn't repurchase my domain as it's showing as unavailable. I will reach out to Site support as advised

I recently installed Kraken plugin to replace EWWW. However, the API status is showing a problem with the credentials and the API Key and API secret are blank.
Please advis
Kracken has not been updated in 5 months. EWWW is old news. SMUSH is the new champion.
Speed tests run my me and a fellow Ambassador confirm. You Can Never Have Enough Plug-Ins
Hey Mark. Thanks. I had a nice read of your content and hope my site won't slow down if I decide to install 23 plugins!!
I'm just starting and do not have the know-how yet.
Thanks for the advise.
As long as you check site speeds before and after and all of the plugins get along with each other(and your theme), why not?
Hi - this is what Carson said previously:
"If you have a website installed currently at WA and are using EWWW image optimizer, keep using that because Kraken will not work on those websites using our Premium Keys (Yet).
With that said, we will be announcing our Next Generation server-class very soon which is going to allow all Premium members the ability to upgrade and make use of these insanely fast and optimized servers and thus enabling Kraken in place of EWWW image optimizer."
Thanks Diane. I missed the announcement. That means I will deactivate Kraken because I've already installed and activated this.
Waiting for the upgrade from the EWWW then!
Regards

Hi Vitaliy. Why are we not promoting Smush? Much better than Kracken. Kracken has not been updated in almost 5 months. Smush has much more going for it. Better reviews, better reviews, more users, more frequent updates.
I have tested and so has another fellow Ambassador and Smush is the clear winner.
I only recently heard of it Mark, if it really is that good, I'd be more than happy to switch, but for most people, Kraken is more than ideal for their site.
Compare yourself and let me know what you think. Watch my tutorial above. It compares the two. Love your name. Where are you from my friend?
