I did a bunch of changes to a site, it automatically saved but then something went wrong and I lost all websites. Went into backup files and retrieved but the last backup was BEFORE I made all the changes. Is there a way to have backups completed every time changes are made to the website or can I force a backup?

Hi,

Thanks for contacting us

Unfortunately, there's no option to force backup. But we have Autosave option for that, or you can export your website as a project to a safe place.
The backup popup appears only after the Nicepage version update. In Preferences, you can choose one of the following options - Ask with dialog, Always Backup, Never Backup.

This is not good eoungh at all. We need to have a "save as" function, so we can save our current workspace, and continue working on the project with another revision number. I just lost a bunch of work, as the system auto-saved a problem with sliders over something that was already working. Have been having numerous problems with sliders re-adjusting things without warning or explanation, and since I can't save what I was working as a separate file, it's becoming very inconvenient. I just extended my subscription and now I'm afraid I've made a mistake. We need this capability yesterday. Please put it in, like virtually every other program.

Thanks

Also, the backup function did not create any backups at all, and I can't even clearly identify what files are what. It appears that each page is saved as an independent entity, not as a website.
