Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted February 23, 201312 yr Hi All, I want to back up a I.P. Board tables to my PC, I'm a site admin so have all the passwords etc. Funny thing is, I googled this a few months ago and managed to get a copy of my members table to csv in about 10 minutes !! Now I just can't remember how I did it! Any answers ?
February 23, 201312 yr You can export individual tables via phpmyadmin including in a .csv format if needed. If its a complete backup you're after have a quick read of this: http://community.invisionpower.com/resources/articles.html/_/server-resource-management/taking-a-manual-backup-using-cpanel-r240 Note its not suitable for larger boards though as you may get some concerns like table locking during a backup. Seems OK < 100,000 posts though at least.
February 23, 201312 yr Author Thank you. The critical step was remembering to use cPanel, use Admin CP all the time but cPanel so infrequently I just forget about it ! James
