    Hi John

    To help us work out the cause of your problem, can you please send us a copy of the restoration log?
    You can find this log in the ‘wp-content/updraft’ directory of your site.
    You can copy the contents into an online tool (such as https://pastebin.com/ ) and post the link

    Hi John,

    From the log, it appears that UpdraftPlus is unable to write to the wp-content directory. This means that the backup is not able to restore the backed up files.

    You will need to check your file permissions and ensure that WordPress has the ability to write to the wp-content directory.

    The following is a good article on WordPress file permissions:
