Site Recovery Plan — Prepared for RepairFind

Your website isn't gone.
It's one fix away.

On August 3 we examined repairfind.ca from the outside — no passwords, no access, just public evidence. The error is real, and it's the most fixable kind of WordPress failure there is. Your data is intact, your email works, and there are three separate ways back online.

The diagnosis · August 3, 2026

What we found — without touching a thing

Everything below comes from publicly observable evidence: DNS records, live browser renders, and your site's own responses. It's all documented, line by line, in the full audit.

✕

What's broken

Fresh visits to repairfind.ca and its inner pages hit a dead end. The failure sits in the page-rendering layer — a plugin or theme conflict, almost certainly caused by an automatic update. Not a hack. Nothing deleted.

What still works

Everything underneath. The login system, database, and WordPress core all respond normally. Your company email on Microsoft 365 is unaffected. DNS is clean. Some visitors still see an older cached copy of the site.

The safety nets

Your hosting plan keeps automatic daily backups with one-click restore, and a complete public archive of the site exists from June 6, 2026. The worst case here is a restore — not a rebuild.

The recovery path

Back online in days. Bulletproof in weeks.

Three phases, in the only order that makes sense: fix the site, remove the risk that made this outage drag on, then get back to growing.

Recovery · Days 1–3

Get the site back

  • Back up the current state before touching anything
  • Read the error log — it names the broken component
  • Disable the culprit, or restore a pre-error backup
  • Clear the caches so everyone sees the fixed site
  • Add monitoring that alerts us all within a minute
→ repairfind.ca live again

Stabilisation · Weeks 1–2

Make it stay up

  • Updates tested on a staging copy before they go live
  • Every plugin licence verified and put in your name
  • Weekly off-site backups you control
  • Every account — domain, hosting, email — in your names
  • Measurement baseline captured before anything else changes
→ no single vendor can lock you out again

Relaunch · Month 2 onward

Get back to growth

  • Waitlist signups verified end-to-end
  • Vancouver search positioning back to work
  • The launch plan from our 2025 proposal, resumed
  • Content and campaigns on infrastructure you own
  • Results measured against the Phase 1 baseline
→ the launch RepairFind was built for
What we need from you

Three things. Zero passwords.

Everything on this page starts with about ten minutes of your time. None of it involves sharing a password with anyone.

01

GoDaddy delegate access

From your GoDaddy account: Account Settings → Delegate Access → invite us. It's GoDaddy's built-in feature for exactly this — you stay in full control, see everything we do, and can revoke it any time.

02

WordPress admin login

If you have one, send it through a password manager share — not email. If you don't have one, that's fine: we can recover it through the hosting access in step 1.

03

Forward one email

When this error happened, WordPress sent an automated email titled "Your Site is Experiencing a Technical Issue" to the site's admin address. It names the exact broken component. Check the inbox and forward it if it's there.

If the GoDaddy account is in your developer's name, not yours — tell us. That's solvable through the provider using your business and billing records, it doesn't require the developer's cooperation, and fixing it permanently is built into Phase 1. If your agreement with them is in dispute, have your lawyer look at it in parallel — that part isn't our lane, and we'll say so.
Never again

When we're done, you own everything.
Including the off switch for us.

The outage is a software problem. The reason it dragged on is an ownership problem. Phase 1 ends with every one of these in accounts registered to RepairFind — not to us, and not to any developer.

✓
Domain & DNS — the one asset that can't be rebuilt, in a company-owned account
✓
Hosting — you hold the account; contractors get revocable delegate access only
✓
WordPress admins — audited, unknown accounts removed, two-factor on every admin
✓
Plugin licences — inventoried and re-registered to RepairFind
✓
Backups — weekly, automatic, to storage you control — plus the host's daily backups
✓
Waitlist & email lists — verified intact and exportable to your accounts

Questions you're probably asking

Straight answers

Once delegate access exists, diagnosis typically takes about an hour and resolution the same day — either by disabling the broken component or restoring the most recent pre-error backup. "Days 1–3" in the plan is deliberately conservative; it includes verification, cache clearing, and monitoring setup.

No. GoDaddy delegate access works without any password changing hands, and you can revoke it in one click. If a WordPress login gets shared, it goes through a password manager, and we'll help you rotate credentials once the access audit is done. The whole point of Phase 1 is fewer people holding keys — not more.

The recovery doesn't depend on their cooperation. If your company controls the GoDaddy account — or can prove ownership through business and billing records — the site, domain, and DNS are recoverable through the provider directly. We'll map exactly who holds what as the first step, and anything contractual belongs with your lawyer, not with us.

Nothing observed suggests any data loss — the database and login system respond normally, which means content and signups are sitting there intact. Before anyone touches anything we take a fresh backup of the current state, and a complete public archive from June 6, 2026 exists as an independent reference.

The audit is yours regardless — no commercial terms appear in it, on purpose. Recovery is a small, tightly-scoped piece of work, and stabilisation is a short project we'll price on the call once we've seen the error log and know exactly what's involved. No retainers required to get your site back.

Next step

Let's get RepairFind back online this week.

Thirty minutes is enough to walk the findings and start the clock. The delegate-access invite alone is enough for us to begin.
