 * Hello,
 * the backend of my WP-Admin is spitting out
 *     ```
       Your backup folder is NOT writable
       To correct this issue, make the folder /var/www/codeme.co/wp-content/backup-db writable.
       Your backup folder MIGHT be visible to the public
       To correct this issue, move the file from /var/www/growthengine.io/wp-content/plugins/wp-dbmanager/htaccess.txt to /var/www/codeme.co/wp-content/backup-db/.htaccess
       To correct this issue, move the file from /var/www/growthengine.io/wp-content/plugins/wp-dbmanager/index.php to /var/www/codeme.co/wp-content/backup-db/index.php
       Click here to let WP-DBManager try to fix it
       ```
   
 * Usually, this isn’t an issue I create a backup-db folder in contents and copy
   over the .htaccess and index.php from the plugin folder. However, this time the
   path of the files is a different domain “codeme.co” running on the same server.
   I am not sure why this path is being displayed.
 * How do I got about solving such an issue?
 * Thanks in advance,
 * Arin

 * Well, nevermind I was able to solve this issue.
 * For some reason, in my DB options under “Path To Backup” I had another domain
   which fixed the issue once corrected.
