 * I just noticed the mandatory upgrade of the data base, but I wanted to back up
   the data base before hitting the upgrade button. Which data base should I back
   up? Can you clarify which one I should be concerned with? Should I back up all
   data bases, or just the EDD data bases? Please clarify.

 * Hi [@mack99](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mack99/),
 * In version 2.x of EDD all the data except for customers was stored with the standard
   WordPress tables. If you are going to take a backup, it would be preferable to
   back up the entire database, as to make sure you do not miss anything, and if
   necessary, have a way to restore the entire site back to the 2.x version.
 * Hope that helps.
