Bug Description
This is more a feature request than a bug.
I wanted to change my Deja Dup backup interval to 1 hour, seems i'm not the only one, I found people requesting to change the interval to all sorts of things (everyone's different).
I would like to request a change to the UI where the schedule is configured. where it is currently:
How often to backup |__Daily__|\/| (drop down box with options Daily, Weekly, Every 2 weeks, Monthly)
I would like to suggest the UI is changed to:
Backup every |__1_|=| |__Days__|\/|
where |__1_|=| is an up/down number scroll box that can default to 1 and can be increased to say 999
and |__Days__|\/| is a dropdown box with the options : Minutes, Hours, Days, Months. It should default to either Days or Months. (You could also include Seconds and Years to keep everyone happy)
I think this change will say in keeping with the simple, easy to use interface, but still allow users the flexibility to choose an interval that suits them.
Thanks,
Dave.
