Is it possible to automatically delete the backup on Duda? For example, I want my backup to only have 3 backups. Example

  1. Backup from January
  2. Back from February
  3. Back from March

So when I do an automatic backup in April, the January backup will automatically delete. And it will look like this in my backup

  1. Backup from February
  2. Backup from March
  3. Backup from April

Hope that makes sense.

 

Thanks

Steve

Look up the Quota settings in the Configuration page. They can help you do exactly that. Most likely you need to set the Count quota to 3.
