 * hi, thanks for this great plugin.
 * I would like to know this:
 * 1. How do I configure the plugin for a multisite network?
 * 2. How do I restore a subsite of the multisite network?
 * Thank you for your attention.

 * Hello [@wotan6891](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wotan6891/)
    For multisite
   environments, you can just install the plugin on multisite and do backup as usual.
   About how to do restore on a multisite network, for now, you can simply just 
   restore the whole site at once because the backup contains your database and 
   files.

 * Hi, thank you for you answer.
 * I understand that all web sites will have to be retrieved.
 * example:
 * 1. Site1
    2. Site2 3. Site3
 * The problem was in site2, and it happened 12 hours before, but when recovering
   the backup, the entire multisite network will have to be recovered, in this case
   the 3 sites would be seen as they were before 12 hours.
 * Then I would have a problem with the sites: site1 and site3, since it is likely
   that these 2 sites have been edited and those updates that they would have made
   within the last 12 hours are lost.
 * Right?

    yes, but 
   I think there is a workaround solution, you can still do restore parts of the
   database, restore only tables of site 2 only,for example, if the site ID is 2,
   you should manually restore only these following tables:
 * wp_2_commentmeta
    wp_2_comments wp_2_links wp_2_options wp_2_postmeta wp_2_posts
   wp_2_terms wp_2_termmeta wp_2_term_relationships wp_2_term_taxonomy
 * I hope it could help ^^

 * Hello, thanks for answering.
 * I have now this question:
 * 1. I have a .sql file from the database, it is a file with sql codes, so how 
   could I import only the tables that you mentioned in yesterday’s message?
 * It happens that I download the backup, and I found the .sql file of the database,
   but when I enter a specific table to be able to restore, it gives me the option
   to import a file. and in this case there are only sql codes that are in the large
   database file.
 * Thanks for your help.

 * Hello [@wotan6891](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wotan6891/)
    It requires
   a little technical skill, so it will be like this: You do restore the full SQL
   file on a temp database, then only export these tables to SQL file, then import
   exported SQL file to your current database.
