Help:Database download

A good reason to use Wikicities is that a MySQL database of every Wikicity is available for download under the terms of the GFDL.

The database is available as a dump of the public SQL tables (this does not include private user data) and thus can be integrated into another SQL table (preferabily one which mediawiki has already been installed in).

To access the download, go to:

http:// name of your wiki.wikicities.com/dbdumps/cur_table.sql.bz2 for the content of the "current" table (the most recent edit to every page),

or to: http:// name of your wiki.wikicities.com/dbdumps/old_table.sql.bz2 for the old table (every edit except the most recent).

Backups
Backups of all Wikicities databases are saved to a file on the same hardware and copied (automatically) to a second server. Therefore, the backups exist on two different machines. Both machines are in the same colocation facility, so it's not quite "off-site".
