Enhance provides comprehensive tools for managing your website’s databases and backups directly from the control panel.
Databases
To manage databases for a website:
- Log in to your Enhance control panel.
- Select the website you want to manage.
- In the left sidebar, click Databases.
From here you can:
- Create new MySQL databases
- Create database users and assign them to databases
- Launch phpMyAdmin to manage database content directly
- Delete databases you no longer need
When you create a database, Enhance automatically generates the database name with your website’s prefix. Make note of the database name, username, and password — you will need these when configuring applications such as WordPress.
Backups
Enhance includes a built-in incremental backup system. To manage backups:
- Log in to your Enhance control panel.
- Select the website you want to manage.
- In the left sidebar, click Backups.
From here you can:
- View available backup snapshots
- Restore an entire website from a snapshot
- Restore individual files, databases, or email accounts (granular restore)
Backups run automatically on a schedule set by your hosting provider. Because the system is incremental, only changes since the last backup are stored, which makes backups fast and storage-efficient.
Before making major changes to your website — such as updating WordPress core, changing themes, or modifying database structure — it’s a good idea to check that a recent backup snapshot exists.
If you need a backup from a date that is no longer listed, contact our support team and we will check whether it can be retrieved.
