My hosts had to perform a reset on the server last night, which meant everything was rolled back until the 29th December.

 

Does anyone know of a mod that will automatically backup the database? I used to use PaulM's mod on vbulletin, was hoping someone knew of something similar in IPB.

There are a few in google, this one looks good at first glance.

 

AutoMySQLBackup Script

Thanks Brandon.

 

Hadn't thought about looking at an external type script. Was too busy focusing on an IPB type mod.

 

Will give that one a shot.

 

Thanks for your help

Sure no problem, I had something like this setup on my old host that would backup the DB of all my sites. I need to set it up again since I've moved to a new host.
