How to backup your CS-Cart application

CS-Cart has a built-in backup functionality. To use this feature, you should go to Administration -> DB Backup/Restore. From there you can backup and restore the database of your CS-Cart application.

The instructions are self-descriptive. All you have to do is click on Backup. The database dump will be saved in /home/youruser/public_html/cscart_folder/var/database/backup

You can restore a saved database by clicking on the Restore button. Please note that your current database will be overwritten by the restored one.

You can backup your CS-Cart files by downloading them locally on your computer. You can do this using an FTP client.
