Pre-Requisites
- Access to Softaculous Remote with the appropriate permissions.
- Basic knowledge of database management and the installations you are working with.
- The script must be installed in an existing database.
This guide will help you select additional database tables to be associated with your installation in Softaculous Remote. This saved list will be used to back up the selected tables when backing up the installation.
Important Note
This option is only available in Softaculous Remote when you install a script in an existing database.
Steps to Select Additional Database Tables
- Click on the Edit icon next to the installation you wish to modify.
- You will be redirected to the page where you can edit the installation details.
- Click on the + icon next to Select tables. A list of all tables present in the database will be displayed.
- Note: The default tables required by the script will be selected by default and will be disabled. You cannot change the selection of these tables. You can, however, select or deselect from the remaining table list.
- Check the tables you want to include in your installation.
- Click on the Save Installation button at the end of the page to save your changes.
Final Steps
Your selected tables will now be associated with your installation, allowing them to be included in backup operations.
Gotchas to Avoid
- Ensure that you only select tables that are relevant to your installation to avoid unnecessary data in backups.
- Double-check the list of tables to ensure you are including the correct ones.
- Be aware that changes to the default tables cannot be made; they are essential for the script's functionality.
