Backups and updates

A server failure, content deleted by accident, a suspicious change in the files — the panel has a tool ready for every one of these. You do not need an IT person for it.

  • Event log
  • File check
  • Maintenance mode
The database and the files go into the backup archive, and the event log records what happens on the site database .zip backup Backup ready03:00 Published the “Services” page09:12 Blocked spam from a form10:41 Version 1.29.0 available11:05 Files match the reference12:00 Backup ready03:00 Published the “Services” page09:12 Blocked spam from a form10:41 Version 1.29.0 available11:05 Files match the reference12:00

What you get

Your site is ready for a rainy day

  • A backup in one click

    You make a ZIP archive with the database and the files from the panel, and you restore it the same way. If you like, you protect it with a password.

  • Event log

    It records sign-ins, errors and changes. When something goes wrong, you can check what happened and when.

  • File check

    The system compares its own files against a reference and warns you when one of them has been swapped — after a break-in, for instance.

  • Updates and maintenance

    The panel checks for a new version by itself and shows what changed in it. While you work you switch on maintenance mode, and visitors see a notice instead of a site that is half-changed.

What it looks like day to day

Three steps in the panel

  1. 01

    You make a backup

    Best before every bigger change — it takes a moment, and the archive is there to download.

  2. 02

    You look into the log

    You see who signed in, what changed and whether anything needs attention.

  3. 03

    You update

    The panel tells you a new version is out and says what you will get.
