    Hi,

    You don’t keep backups of your sites? Maybe you could try contacting your hosting provider to see if they can restore it?

    If you should need help keeping backups of your sites then I would recommend that you contact a service like SteadyWP.

    maybe you are a lucky guy and waybackmachine has rendered your site the last time:

    https://web.archive.org/

    put in your url and hope !
    if there are some entries ( for me it is the 14.September)

    We color the dots, and links, associated with individual web captures, or multiple web captures, for a given day. Blue means the web server result code the crawler got for the related capture was a 2nn (good); Green means the crawlers got a status code 3nn (redirect); Orange means the crawler got a status code 4nn (client error), and Red means the crawler saw a 5nn (server error). Most of the time you will probably want to select the blue dots or links.

    you can click the date and see if it was rendered completely.
    They show you the state of your website of that date – so it is in a way a backup.

    Now you have to be familiar with firebug or other developer tools.
    you have to navigate to style.css and on the bottom there are the quick.css entries you did.
    If you need futher help you can tell me the url – and i will mange it for you

    by the way isn’t there a warning on that button after clicked? Sometimes reading those popups produced from the own site is a good advice.
    may be this could be a good first rule for you in quick css:

    .avia_reset {
        pointer-events: none;
    }

    Hello Guenni.. sorry about not answer you… actually i configured everything again on CSS… i got my friend’s help to do it faster.
    But i tried wayback machine like u said first… but there was nothing there…so i go tintense to recover fast.. and i talked with my client about my mistake.. i event showed him the button RESET ALL SETTINGS in the layout.. and even him said.. “oh my god.. who could do that” lol..

    But in the and i fixed.. but i think you guys should move this button to one of the tabs.. maybe at the THEME UPDATE TAB.

    But thanks anyway guys.
    And thank you very much for your help Guenni! I really appreciate.

    CYA

    Hi Bruno,

    Glad you got your site recovered and thanks for the feedback, we’ll consider moving that button in a future update.

    maybe you can deactivate it by default – and must activate it if you like to have it:
    this could be a good thing in functions.php of everyones child-theme

    function admin_head_mod() {
    echo '<style type="text/css">
    .avia_reset {pointer-events: none !important }
    </style>';
    }
    add_action('admin_head', 'admin_head_mod');
