 * I know someone has probably covered this, but I need to do a manual backup of
   my database, but I was wondering if it were possible to import it through WordPress’s
   backend. Thoughts? Possible? Thanks.

 * Below covers database backup, phpMyAdmin is what I prefer:
 * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database](http://codex.wordpress.org/Backing_Up_Your_Database)
 * And I also use that to move/import/recover a database backup.

 * Oh my no…getting started can be overwhelming to very many…stick with it and use
   the codex as your source…
