Database Backup sent via email or at least downloadable
  • marcnycmarcnyc January 2010

    It would be great if SI could email a database backup either automatically or when the admin creates a database backup... I use WordPress and they have a plug in that allows for that, which takes a lot of stress out of worrying about one's data...
    If that is not possible or too hard it would be great if at least on the database backup page there could be a link to the database file (after it is created) so that when one creates a database backup one can also download it to the local machine... having a backup on the server is only good as long as the server is good, but if the server ever were to crash and burn, having a backup on the server and not on another machine won't be very helpful, you know what I mean?

    awesome...
    the later (link) should be super easy to implement...
    emailing, might be a tad tougher but you can do it ;-)

    i think email backup should be the new default option - replacing save on server

    cheers
