Hi i am new to servers and i cannot figure out how to set up auto back up using forge essentials.

My back up config looks like this....

# Configuration file

####################
# backups
#===================
# Configure the backup system.
####################

backups {
# The path to the backup folder. If left blank, it will assume ./ForgeEssentials/Backup/
S:backupsDir=

# If this is false, the backupsDir path will be treated as an absolute path. Otherwise it is relative to the ForgeEssentials/Backups folder.
B:isRelative=true

# The name config for the backup zip. You can use the following variables: %day, %month, %year, %hour, %min, %world
S:name=%world-%year-%month-%day_%hour-%min
}


This is all i contains from all the wikis all you have to do is change the interval but i isn't there. Am i doing something wrong?

I actually found the backups wasn't working properly, haven't checked my recently as using a different method. use /backup see if it creates a backup correctly(look inside the zip).

To answer you though, yes not reading the wiki

on the wiki's back module page they post this under configuration.
