# How To Restore a Backup To Another Site In ORIV?

> Learn how to use ORIV’s Restore to Another Site feature to move backups between WordPress sites while keeping your data secure and consistent.

[**Backups**](https://oriv.cloud/docs/site-backups-in-oriv/) give you safety, but flexibility comes when you can move them across sites without friction. ORIV allows restoring to another site, a feature that lets you restore a WordPress site backup directly onto a different existing WordPress site on the same server or on a different one within your team.

This is useful for cloning a production site to a staging site, recovering a site using another site’s recent backup, or replacing a broken site’s content without creating a new site from scratch. Follow this to learn how to restore a backup to another site in ORIV:

## **Step 1: Go to Your Site**

Navigate to the source site in the dashboard. Open **‘Site Backup’ → ‘Previous Backups’** from the sidebar.

Now, click on the action menu on any backup. The action menu on each backup provides three restore options:

* **Restore Backup:** Restore to the same site (existing behavior)
* **Restore to Another Site:** Restore to a different existing WordPress site
* **Restore to New Site:** Create a new site from the backup

Select the ‘**Restore to Another Site**’ option to proceed.

## **Step 2: Select the Destination Server And Site**

In the modal that opens, use the Select Server dropdown to choose the target server. You can type to search by server name. Once a server is selected, the Select WordPress Site dropdown becomes active. Choose the site you want to overwrite with the backup.
