That is my question, I have been stumped trying to find the same "ticks" for making a good custom DB backup but all the zen links lead me to the same page https://docs.zen-cart.com/user/running/backup/. This is not the same as a list we could refer to before. It had setting for v3.3 or lower, using v3.4 to 3.9, and v4.x as i recall. I have phpMyAdmin 4.9.7. This link appears to be for a one fit all version that i cant match settings with confidence.
Please help, I am needing to do some DB backups!
