It doesn't appear to be possible to edit this setting after a back site has been created.

That's frustrating.

This option is available when setting up a new back site:

But it's not available to edit in the Config settings afterwards...

@staff question: I presume that if I have this setting enabled on multiple backup sites then whenever an app updates it'll first back-up to both locations? I think the docs could do with more info about this setting. Thanks

@jdaviescoates yeah, it's not good. The UI will change in the coming releases. We will be moving away from dialogs into views (i.e full pages). The dialogs were primarily because of our old dashboard design. When we move to views, we will avoid this whole set up where we have 3 dialogs and we have to remember where to find which settings.

@girish thanks - looking forward to new improved UI

yes, it will back up to multiple locations and then update.
