class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Does_This_Happen\"><\/span>How Does This Happen?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you remove a website from the <strong>Websites<\/strong> section:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The website configuration is removed from the panel.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The domain is removed from the website list.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The files remain on the server.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The database remains on the server.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you later create a new website using the same domain name, the system cannot reuse the original directory because it still exists. To avoid overwriting your existing data, a new directory is automatically created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"First_Website\"><\/span>First Website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>yourdomain.com<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After deleting the website, the directory still exists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Second_Website\"><\/span>Second Website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you create the website again, the system may create:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>yourdomain.com-xzcf<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Third_Website\"><\/span>Third Website<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the process is repeated, another directory may be created:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>yourdomain.com-a8b2<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_This_Affect_My_Website\"><\/span>Does This Affect My Website?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Only the directory assigned to the active website is used to serve content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The additional directories are simply leftover data from previous website installations or configurations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Can_I_Check_Which_Directory_Is_Currently_Active\"><\/span>How Can I Check Which Directory Is Currently Active?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the mybox Panel:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Open:<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>Websites<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Click on the website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Locate the website details section.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the document root or website directory path displayed there.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the directory currently being used by the active website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_I_Delete_the_Old_Directories\"><\/span>Can I Delete the Old Directories?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, but only if you are certain they are no longer needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before deleting any directory:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Verify that it is not used by an active website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Create a backup if necessary.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confirm that no important files remain inside.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can remove old directories using:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>FTP clients such as FileZilla or WinSCP<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SSH access (if enabled)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_About_Databases\"><\/span>What About Databases?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just like website files, databases are not automatically removed when a website is deleted from the mybox Panel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Unused databases should be reviewed and removed manually if they are no longer needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Summary\"><\/span>Summary<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you see directories such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>yourdomain.com<br>yourdomain.com-xzcf<br>yourdomain.com-ab12<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">it usually means the website was added and removed multiple times. The mybox Panel removes the website configuration but leaves files and databases intact. When the website is created again, the system generates a new directory name to prevent accidental overwriting of existing data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before deleting any old directories, always verify which directory is currently assigned to the active website and make sure you have a backup of any important data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","manualknowledgebasecat":[23],"manual_kb_tag":[283,2750,4962,4963,4964,4965,4966,4967,4968,4969],"class_list":["post-9709","manual_kb","type-manual_kb","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","manualknowledgebasecat-ftp","manual_kb_tag-mybox-panel","manual_kb_tag-database-cleanup","manual_kb_tag-website-directories","manual_kb_tag-document-root","manual_kb_tag-active-website","manual_kb_tag-leftover-directories","manual_kb_tag-orphaned-files","manual_kb_tag-unused-databases","manual_kb_tag-delete-old-directories","manual_kb_tag-website-backup"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/9709","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/manual_kb"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/9709\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9710,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/9709\/revisions\/9710"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9709"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"manualknowledgebasecat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manualknowledgebasecat?post=9709"},{"taxonomy":"manual_kb_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/ro\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb_tag?post=9709"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
