Hello Admins/Moderators!

I've got a question, can i make a forum backup, or? Because i thought it would be good if i could have a backup on my computer, so if something goes wrong i can replace it.. is that possible ? if so how?

Thanks,

MyBB 1.2 (which is due for release in a very short time period) contains a built-in database backup feature. It allows you to backup the database with a few clicks and it very simple to use.

MyBB 1.x, however, does not contain this feature. For the time being, you will have to make backups through PHPMyAdmin. [wiki]Database Backup[/wiki] for details on how to do this.
You could also install EMods, EMods with Database Archiving Module, but I myself recommend you use PHPMyAdmin . . .
He is running a MyBB Board hosted by CreateMyBB, so I do not think he can access the phpMyAdmin.
