In what situations do we backup template?
Editing Template
As a blogger, editing template or redesigning the appearance of the blog is something we should be able to do. When doing this activity we sometimes make small mistakes such as misplacing the code or accidentally deleting some code so that an error occurs. For some people, especially those who are experienced in programming languages, maybe they can handle it easily. Then what if we can't fix it? So, that's why we need to back up the template first. You can easily restore the original template.
Template updates
Visitors sometimes get bored when visiting blogs that have that same appearance. As a creative blogger, we do not only present new content, but also the appearance of the blog that must always be updated so that visitors do not get bored easily. Before updating the template, we should first backup the blog template. We will not know whether the new template will fully support it or not, but if a fatal error occurs, at least we can restore the previous template.
Hacker Attack
This is very unlikely that it will ever happen. Blogger is a blogging platform that is super safe and protected from various hacker attacks. But in certain cases, sometimes beginner bloggers use a template that someone has modified and a malicious code has been inserted inside. For example entering code from a malicious ad network.
The perpetrator who shares this template usually hides the malicious code using Base64 so that the code cannot be found easily. Well, in this situation we have to backup the template before changing to a new template, especially when the template we get comes from a site that is not the original author.
