Backing Up A Movable Type Weblog

18 May 2003

Both of the techniques that Robyn suggested work well. I’ve used Movable Type’s native export feature to create a file that has all of my entries in it. It happened very quickly, but a check of the file proved all the entries are there.

Then, I used the technique for writing templates to an external file to make certain a copy of my templates always reside in a folder at my web host. For double redundancy’s (i.e. Murphy’s) sake, I also copied that folder to a local drive.

If you haven’t you should!
