Steps to move site across servers or taking backup and restore
For Unacms, what to do for the following cases.
- Moving the site from one host to another.
- Creating regular backups and restoring the sites backup.
I searched, but could not find proper documentation on this. Maybe the things take care are similar for the above two.
- Q1 - Is it as simple as copying the whole installation folder and the Database over ? And for backup I could regularly take the backup of the folders and databases and if required just replace them later with the backup copy ?
- Q2 - What are the recommended best practices if any ?
EDIT - Thank you very much in advance for your help.

Hello @highlightings !
Yes, you're almost right on both points. To be sure you may refer to this manual https://unacms.com/wiki/Cloud-FAQ#4-how-to-migrate-from-una-cloud-to-other-hosting-
It's better to back up your files and database regularly but extract any of them in cases where there are serious errors.

Thank you very much.. That link was what I was looking for. It would be great if we can have the documentation at one place. Maybe this portal can include the md files in github..

We are filling our Documentation area on this site, updated my answer.

This Link needs an update, right?
... and some information, that ATM there is no interface, to do the changes (domain, erase, restart ++) by yourself
