Hi guys ,

I wonder how do I backup my website since the backup in my cpanel is not working

I want to backup my site so incase I move hosting I can restore my forum with all the threads and topics that it has and I wont lose any of them

    Here it's not a general "How to" forum,, remember that.

    To backup your forum, you can do these steps:
    1. Copy all your forums files from your site to your computer
    2. Export all tables of your database as sql file
    3. And export your vanilla database with VanillaPorter.

    If you move the host, you will need to do some more steps: http://vanillaforums.org/discussion/comment/220561/#Comment_220561

    VanillaPorter isn't needed for that.
