    Site backups

    Hello, I don't see a place in the control panel for handling backups. Is there a way to do this or do you all do this without user intervention. 

     

    Thanks!

    Re: Site backups

    Found this in the FAQ on the other website. Thought it might be helpful to others:

     

    Absolutely! All files and databases are backed up to an off site backup server. We also retain all backups for 15 days. If your site or databases become corrupt due to a buggy module or skin, we can restore it for you as if nothing ever happened.

    Re: Site backups

    Hi,

    I tend to ftp into my site every couple of days and there is a "Backups" folder there where I copy down the most recent database backup and keep.

    This is useful if I want to restore my local copy to an earlier date to check on anything or try any alterations without touching the live site, plus I'm always happier when I have my own backup copy !!

    Cheers,

    Peter
