Whether you can get at your website's HTML and CSS depends on which 10Web builder it was made with.
Websites built with the Agentic Website Builder
If your website was created or regenerated with 10Web's current Agentic Website Builder, you have direct access to its real source files from inside the 10Web AI Editor — you don't need to download anything separately.
- Open your website's editor, then click Code in the top toolbar. This opens a file explorer and a code editor over the website's actual files, including CSS files (
globals.css,index.css, and a CSS module per page) and the page and component code (.tsxfiles for pages, sections, and reusable sections such as the header and footer). - While editing visually, selecting any element and choosing Go to code from its menu (or the
</>icon on the floating toolbar) jumps straight to that element's exact code. - After an AI or manual change, the chat panel's modification card has a Code diff view that shows exactly which files changed, with removed code in red and added code in green.
- Manual edits made in Code mode are saved and published the same way as other edits: click Save, then Publish.
Important:
Code mode is intended for users comfortable editing code — changes made there can affect your website's layout, design, or functionality. It also isn't a one-click export: you view and edit the files in the browser-based editor, there's no single button that packages them into a downloadable .zip of static files.
For a full tour of the editor's modes, see the 10Web AI Editor article.
Websites built with the legacy 10Web Builder (Elementor)
Older websites built with 10Web's legacy, Elementor-based 10Web Website Builder don't have a Code mode. They're standard WordPress sites, where pages are generated dynamically from PHP, a MySQL database, and theme files rather than existing as fixed HTML/CSS files. On these sites you can still reach the underlying code through WordPress itself:
- Use the Custom CSS feature in the 10Web Builder for styling specific elements.
- Edit Theme Files or Child Themes from the WordPress Editor if you're comfortable working with PHP and CSS.
Downloading your website's files
On either builder, if you need an actual copy of your site's files — for backup or migration — this still works the same way:
- Go to the Backups section in your 10Web Dashboard and download a full backup of your website. See the 10Web Backup Service article for details.
- Or access your site files directly over SFTP (10Web also provides SSH and phpMyAdmin access). Find your credentials under Hosting Services > Credentials in your website's 10Web Dashboard.
Note:
10Web websites use WordPress, so downloading website files is not the same as exporting a standalone static HTML website. To migrate a functional website, you will also need its WordPress database, plugins, themes, and other dependencies.
