as this title, it is the first time i use b2e, a good blog experience,
but when i want to backup database and files (through the admin function "Maintenance " ) , backup is successfully, but i can't find the entry to restore the database using these backup files, backup files are in my FTP space , which file name is "db.zip" and "files.zip"
who can tell me? thanks !!
my version is "b2evolution-5.2.2-stable-2015-02-21"

Hi @iloveleeyan,
There are no restore tool in the back-office for those backups, so you should restore them manually.
For example, you can download the
files.zipfile, uncompress it in your local computer and reupload all the files to the server using a regular FTP client (FileZilla or similar) as you did when installed b2evo in the first place (assuming you did it that way). If you're not too technical, you can ask your hosting provider to do this for you, most of them offer this service.The database is a bit more tricky and you can find more info in this page: http://b2evolution.net/man/installation-upgrade/moving-your-site/restoring-a-mysql-backup
Please, don't forget to tell us how it goes :D
Regards!
