• I just realized I’ve been backing up the database the wrong way.

    On the guide http://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database
    it says to check:

    ‘Structure’
    ‘Add DROP TABLE / VIEW / PROCEDURE / FUNCTION’
    ‘Add IF NOT EXISTS’
    ‘Add AUTO_INCREMENT’ and
    ‘Enclose table and field names with backquotes’

    But previously I’ve been checking:

    ‘Structure’
    ‘Add DROP TABLE / VIEW / PROCEDURE / FUNCTION’
    ‘Add IF NOT EXISTS’
    ‘Add AUTO_INCREMENT’ and
    ‘Add Create Procedure/Function

    So I’m just curious if it will affect my blog in anyway… I’ve restored using these backups.
