I recently restored a backup of a WordPress site using Hostinger's server. However, after completing the restore, I noticed that all of the custom CSS that I had added in the "Extra CSS" section of the WordPress Customizer was missing. This resulted in garbled code on the front end of the site.

This issue was so unexpected because I had thought that the process of restoring a backup would preserve all customizations, including CSS.

Problems encountered:

Custom CSS is missing: Styles added in WordPress "Extra CSS" are not preserved after restoration.
Inconsistent website front-end design: Due to the loss of CSS, the appearance and layout of the website became cluttered and could not render the original design.

My original hypothesis:

I was expecting Hostinger's backup recovery process to beAutomatically includes all customized settingsIncludes style code added in "Extra CSS".
I've tried checking the recovered files to see if there is another location where the CSS is saved, but nothing.

  It's better to buy self-hosted servers, Hostinger has too many limitations and is not very fast

  I've encountered a similar one before, you can refer to my method! 1. Log in to your Hostinger account: Use your account information to log in Hostinger platform. 2、Select the target website: Enter the WordPress website management interface where you need to restore CSS. 3、Access the database management tool (phpMyAdmin): In Hostinger's control panel, find the Database section. 4, open phpMyAdmin tool. Select the website database: In the phpMyAdmin interface, select the database corresponding to your website. 5、Execute the SQL query: Click the **Query (Query)** tab at the top. Enter the following SQL statement in the Query box:
```
SELECT * FROM wp_posts WHERE post_type = 'custom_css';
```
  Click Submit Query. 6. Find custom CSS data: The query result will show one or more rows of data containing the previously saved custom CSS code. 7、Copy and restore CSS: Click the **Edit (Edit)** button to view and copy the CSS code. Paste the copied CSS code back into the **Additional CSS** section of the WordPress backend.
