To revert your WordPress website, first check if you have a backup. Use your hosting backup tool or a backup plugin to restore a previous version. If you only need to revert content, go to Posts/Pages → Revisions and restore an earlier revision. For plugin or theme issues, downgrade the specific plugin or theme version instead of the full site. Always create a backup before restoring.
