## Manual approach (for experienced users)

Manual editing of the database is suitable for experienced users who are familiar with the database.

**Important:** In the Shopware 6 Cloud currently is no possibility to reach the configuration via the database.

**Tip**: For quick access to the database, we like to use the [Adminer extension](/knowledge-base/profi-knowledge/editing-the-database-with-the-adminer.md) for the Friends of Shopware admin.
{% endhint %}

### Backup of the theme configuration

1. Open the database (e.g. Adminer or phpMyAdmin)
2. Use the search field to find the table "**themes**" (1)
3. Open the table with "**select**" (2)
4. Edit the data set of the desired theme (e.g. "TcinnThemeWareModern") with "**edit**" (3)
5. Save the content of the column "**config\_values**" (4) in a \*.txt or \*.json file to perform a "backup" of the current configuration
6. Leave the database without saving changes

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://knowledge.themeware.design/knowledge-base/profi-knowledge/backup-of-the-themeware-configuration.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
