Enhanced backup download / upload (Following 12.10.0 release)

dalet11

Following the discussion of the 12.10.0 release, I am opening a more official feature request as follows:

Instead of the current location of the upload backup and website data download options, since it is basically downloading a backup and restoring a backup, those buttons should be located under the "Backups" tab. This will be much easier for end users to locate and will make better sense.
Example: https://postimg.cc/hJS9Qn84
Allow download of existing backups. Add a "Request Download" button or link for each backup in the list, which will trigger a job to pack the data into a tar.gz file, and send an email notification or UI toast when the backup is ready to download. The download link should be available for a limited time and auto-delete after that.
Example: https://postimg.cc/SJM5D6B2
Enhance the backup restore flow: after uploading a backup file, show a summary of the data found in the backup. Allow the user to select what to restore (databases, files, email data) and then click a confirm button. This should be similar to how restoring backups from the backup server is done today, or importing backup from Cpanel / Plesk looks.

Another minor note:
Instead of showing the restore "log," show only a progress bar, as for non-technical end users this information doesn’t mean anything anyway. The log can still be available but collapsed (hidden) by default.

Thanks 🙂

dalet11 it’s not backup, it’s archive!
It’s simply new “Archive feature” that need one button to download the archive and using Import website to import it at Enhance cluster from Enhance based hosting provider… with few options of what to be extracted…

According to the changelog, it is called "Ability to download/upload an Enhance website backup." So I follow. That’s why I’m opening this feature request - to improve it into a proper backup download/upload feature.

dalet11 backup-upload/download feature its with backups. There was already logged requests about this (the ability to create - download and upload backups with the plus to have single backup that doesn’t gets deleted and stays forever)

Today’s update it’s about Archiving website data and extracting it.
Don’t believe on everything you read there a mistakes, like in Import website page you can see that for Enhance. CPanel and plesk are hosting providers, actually they are not hosting providers just hosting provider platform
