Jombackup 1.5 / 1.0

The default settings should be enough to get you up and running, but there are plenty of configuration options available to you, including modifying the text of the email sent to you, changing the default email address and the actual type of mysql data backed up. Literally you should be able to fire and forget.

This mambot is designed to allow those people who do not have access to, or are unwilling to use, Cron, to enable daily backups of their Joomla mysql data. It runs every time Joomla is run. Most of the time, all it will do is check for the existence of a checkfile with today's date. If the file exists it will not do anything else, however if the file doesn't exist (IE the local servers time has passed the midnight hour and this is the first time today the site has been visited) then the plugin will perform a backup of the systems mysql data and email it to either the system default email address, or another that you may have specified in the configuration.
