A unique feature of Akeeba Backup
Professional for Joomla
s the ability to ensure
that a backup is performed
every time you update Joomla.
This is a plugin
so go to extensions
plugins
and then search for
backup on update.
Click on the name to open the plugin
If you have more than one backup profile
we need to select which
profile we want to use.
Then on the right hand side
change the status to enabled.
Click save and close.
At the bottom right of your screen
ou should now see a green icon
indicating that Backup on Update
is enabled and active.
If for any reason you want to disable it
you can click on the icon
to temporarily disable it.
If I return to my joomla control panel
I can see that there is a Joomla update
available.
From now on whenever you
perform a Joomla update
a backup will automatically
be performed before the update
begins without the need
for any interaction.
As soon as the backup completes
the update will begin
