How can I restore smf forum from a backup?
(1/1)
GeneMoore:
As admin, I am able to use the backup utility, but there is no one who can tell me how to restore the backup file to my smf-forum directory on my host public html folder. Any help is deeply appreciated.
thanks!

Well.. I am a bit confused - my application only backs up the forum database. You can restore it using PHP MyAdmin (Import utility) [ or via command line using mysql, if you have SSH access to your forum].
If you need to restore the forum files (found on your public html directory) you need to have a backup of the forum directory (which you should obtain from CPanel, or via FTP etc - depending on your setup).
