backup button

[smallpigpig]

Hi guys!

Im trying to do a full back up of my website, and I read the "read me" files, and they said there is a back up button on cpanel,but i can't seem to find it

I read on another thread saying it was taken away. I was wondering if it will be back on cpanel?

and if not, can you tell me how to do a full back up? Im really a newbie, so please be gentle

thank you!

I'd suggest just logging in to ftp and copying all the files to your hard drive.
Or you could use the web disk feature found under cpanel. I use that to make quick backups sometimes.

I removed it from some servers because it was being abused. Backing up an account takes a good amount of server resources depending how large the account is and the databases that go with it. Some people were backing up their accounts multiple times each day.

I suppose I will just suspend those people next time

It should be back in today.

Please re-open if further assistance is needed.
