tim_ver Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I know how to backup the .php files so if a mod does not work it is easy to go back. But If I need to remove tables and things from sql this is a different story. How do I edit the *.dql file lines so instead of add it removes the items? I figure it is a comand to add instead of add, etc. Thanks Much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tim_ver Posted July 29, 2006 Author Share Posted July 29, 2006 Ok so a backup in oscommerce admin area or in phpmyadmin/mysql? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starcad Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 Actually your should do both. Back up the Data Base and and the folder 'Catalog' if that is what you use. That way if your contribution fizzles then you have a backup of your catalog and can then just replace the messed up contribution files with the backups.
