What's a Back-up? A back-up is a process that allows you to restore data, & recover data that you lost due to a technical problem or mishandling, if you have deleted members, messages in error, if you lost your graphic theme, etc... To proceed to a backup you should use Founder's tools Note: You can not recover your forum at an earlier date than 5 times a day. Beyond the fifth back-up, you get this warning, and must wait 24 hours to recover the ability to make a back-up. How to access founder's tools? Go to this page: Founder's tools Enter the following information:
How does a back-up work? You can choose between: - A full forum backup - Theme only - Messages and user only Several restoration dates are available. Each date is a backup of your forum. If you restore your forum date X, ALL the forum will be restored (Note: "gains" of the forum may be deleted if the structure of the forum has changed in the meantime). The forum is restored in the exact state of the chosen date, ie a backup on a date x is a copy of the forum at the time x. To overcome this problem, you must make a second back-up. If I choose to restore the forum 2014-09-08 - all posts from September 8 will be deleted as well for all registered members since that date. After the back-up 2015-09-08, you have to make a second back-up dated 2015-10-15 - to retrieve all new members & new messages posted between September 08 and October 15. In the back up field there is a drop down menu and you can now choose what you want to restore: If you removed a user and want to restore, select User for back up. If you removed users and messages and want to restore, select user and messages. If you have made errors with your theme or want an old one back, select theme to restore. If you want to restore all the above select full back up. Note: Forum statistics will not be renewed immediately after the backup for technical reasons:
