4、 How the Reset plug-in works
Briefly describe the working principle of the Reset plug-in. WordPress website consists of program files and database. When installing theme demo, it is easy to cause installation failure due to various reasons. At this time, the best way is to initialize WordPress and reinstall Demo.
The Reset plug-in will restore the WordPress database to the state just installed. After reset, the site's articles, pages, categories, labels, settings, etc. will be restored to the same state as when WordPress was installed for the first time. Therefore, you must consider whether to back up the database before operation.
Of course, the Reset plug-in does not delete files, but only cleans the database. After the Reset operation, the theme file, plug-in file, picture, program, etc. are still in the status of not being enabled. For example, after resetting with the Reset plug-in, the images of the website are still on the server, but they cannot be seen in the WordPress background media library. This is caused by the cleaning of the database content.
So the Reset plug-in does not empty the database, but restores the database to the initial state of WordPress. This also saves time and effort to speed up the installation and installation of Demo.
