If you have a blog, and want to feel really bad, DON’T do backup’s of it. Wait for the server to crash, corrupt everything, THEN think about if or when you last did a back up!
\nI lost about two months worth of posts including Denver, Mexico, California and the Czech Republic!
\nI had updated the WordPress blog here at Kazology a little over a week ago while I was in Denver Colorado. Everything was fine, checked it a couple days later and notices I got a error. Thought it would reset… guess not. Replaced the actual program files with copies I have, still no go, but did improve enough to allow me to log on, which I could not do before. Once I did that I found all the posts were gone. Restored the last back up I did in September… ouch.
\nI don’t know about other blogs, but if you are not backing up the actual SQL files on your host server you may be sorry some day.<\/p>\n
I know my new backup plan is to create a backup after every post from now on! It only takes about two minutes, and is set up to email the file to another account for safe keeping.<\/p>\n
Until the last backup is created and restored,
