Backup and restore de database
based on the
XT Dump script with the agreement of the author
Use it carrefully. For the first use, make a backup with another tool like phpmyadmin in case of problem.
I've tested on my server and it works, but if a developper can have a look it will be better

I hope this plugin can help people who are searching a backup way without using external tools like phpmyadmin.
What it isThis plugin is a simple way for backup and restore the Coppermine database directly from the admin menu:
there are three actions possible:
