Hello:
Once again, I am here for asking for help. It happens that it was thinking: Since I make to make backup of all my Zenith Picture Gallery without losing commentaries, or the uploaded photos. And if soon it wanted to reinstall it in another server (webhosting)? Since it would have to do it. (Big interesting idea, if he himself Panel of Administrator had a tool for this). I wait for any type of suggestion and help, since my gallery has grown and wanted much to make a backup to him as rapidly as possible. Greetings. LUIS PD: Excuseme for my poor english.

Hi, You know that's something that was planned for v0.6, but never happened. It would be really cool if the Admin CP could allow you to backup everything. But you can still do it directly from phpMyAdmin or whatever other MySQL management tool you have installed.
1. To backup your tables, you can easily export them to a .zip in phpMyAdmin. Alternatively, you can use the MySQL console and type something like: mysqldump -u<<mysql_username>> -p<<mysql_pass>> <<db_name>> > /path/to/wherever/you/want/to/dump/it/to/zenith.sql 2. To backup your pictures, of course all you need to do is backup the uploads directory. Let me know what happens. --------------------    Things that I don't suck at: Photography (flickr, JPG Mag), "Don't bail; the best gold is at the bottom of barrels of crap!" -Randy Pausch I have people-skills goddamnit!

I'm sure it wouldn't be hard and the coding should be pretty straight forward. --------------------  |
