Description of problem

Hi!
I am a small forum what I keep for designing, I get ready things on it before they go onto the main forum. Yesterday and this morning I worked quite a lot on this design forum and today I was silly enough to accedentally change the skin. All my CSS and colors and images went back to technically where I started yesterday.
Obviously I went on utilites but there I find the message under back up:
"No backup available for your forum"

I am not entirely sure how often does it back up but I was hoping I could restore to like previous stage, or maybe to like last night so I only have half the work to do again...

Thanks in advance.

Hello our system does a backup every day but as your forum is only 1 to 2 days old it has not yet backed up your forum yet our system backs up on our servers for our reset daily but it will only backup your tools every 2 weeks so as your forum is new it as not yet made the tools backup.

You could try the following to see it it backed up on this part.

ACP >> Display tab >> Skins >> Skins management >>

"No backup available for your forum" Captu313

it may not be saved there yet also

Hello,

Your forum was just created yesterday, It is quite normal that there is no backups available for it yet. It will probably take a week to two weeks before you notice the first backup show up on the Utilities.

I don't have that restore skin option so I assume it didn't save yet. Oh well, thank you though for checking it for me, I guess next time I'll be more careful. I didn't know how the back up works exactly so it was worth a question.
