studiolinear Posted April 26, 2022 Share Posted April 26, 2022 Hi all!Ā Is there ANY WAY to restore a website that was maliciously deleted?! We have a client who hired a freelancer to edit her site, long story short, it didn't end well and the freelancer deleted her website. Is there any solution to this? Any backup? We can't find any way to restore and I feel horrible for our client š Thank you!Ā Link to comment

studiolinear Posted April 26, 2022 Author Share Posted April 26, 2022 @paul2009Ā yeah, they did with no luck. All they were told was that there is nothing they can do š Link to comment

Squarespace say that when a site is deleted (manually by a user) itsĀ content is marked for permanent deletion and "it can takeĀ more than 30 days for us to permanently delete the site from our system". I would have expected them to restore the site if they were contacted by the site owner within hours/days.

studiolinear Posted April 26, 2022 Author Share Posted April 26, 2022 Thank you @paul2009! This is what we thought too and the support on chat told us it was essentially our problem and there was nothing they were going to do about it. I just reached out to a contact we had at SQS in the hopes she can help, not sure if there is a way to escalate this and our experience with SQS chat too.Ā paul2009 1 Link to comment

gotrakphn Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 Hi! I have a somewhat similar issue, my client failed to renew their subscription and didnt notice the email notification. Now their website has been deleted after 30 days of no response from client. Is it still possible to recover the website since squarespace was the one who deleted the website? Thank you!
