It's not very comfortable to install right now because you have to fill in your database details in the two php files. Maybe lexa can integrate it into CuteNews.RU? I think many people would like it. If not, it's not bad either. It's working the way it is right now, as well. Read the readme.txt for installation instructions. backup.zip  Description: Backup the mySQL database Download  Filename:  backup.zip  Filesize:  13.48 KB  Downloaded:  276 Time(s) Wed Nov 09, 2005 8:35 pm Guest Please login to hide the ads. lexa Creator of CuteNews.RU Joined: 02 Oct 2005 Posts: 90 Location: St.-Petersburg, Russia Cool! I integrate it 100%. Wed Nov 09, 2005 10:23 pm ksen Joined: 04 Jun 2006 Posts: 142 Backup & Restore MySQL Database Fascinating!! ABSOLUTELY FASCINATING!! I suddenly feel very complete I backed up the database from my site and did a test cutenews.ru installation on a different site and did a restore (ofcourse i had to make sure both databases had the same name and login)!! It worked flawlessly!! But do u know that nowhere, i repeat 'NOWHERE' on this forum (atleast i cudnt find any) is even a single word mentioned that this wonderful feature is already integrated with ur cutenews.ru 2.5.4 installation!! There ofcourse is the link to backup the database on the main menu when u login as admin. But hidden in the same folder there is the restore file as well!! All u need to do is type the url for this file in ur browser!! Ex - www.mydomain.com/cutenews/backup/dosql.php[backupfilename.sql.gz] Sun Oct 01, 2006 6:06 pm ksen Joined: 04 Jun 2006 Posts: 142 Hey just a after thought, what if somebody figures out the path to the file and types the link?? It'l jst restore it right?? But dont u think this is a potential place for a hacker?? Cant we put something in the file to make sure its the administrator?? Does including the head.php file achieve this?? It would also be great if the backup & restore functions could both be accessed from the same page. Or i guess it would do to atleast have a 'restore' link rite next to the 'backup' link in the admin main page.
