I’m currently experimenting with 3.3 on a staging machine and when I activated the new admin sidebar, I got this menu:

But, accessing _Backups_ leads to:

This being a staging server, we had set `enable_backups` to `false` at some point, hence why we bumped into this bug. Setting it to `true` makes this work as expected. I suppose that menu entry may need to be conditional on that setting.

Having said that, the description for `enable_backups` currently is

> Allow administrators to **create** backups of the forum

however, if it is set to `false` but `automatic_backups_enabled` is enabled, periodic backups continue to run (as I just found out..). So maybe `enable_backups` is about creating backups manually only?

In such case, perhaps `/admin/backups` section should always show to access any backups already done, and the “Backup” button in that page following the `enable_backups` setting.

PS: Shouldn’t the all admin settings be reachable even without the new admin sidebar? The custom moderation flags seem to not be anywhere under the usual settings (did I miss it?).

I wasn’t able to find it without the admin sidebar either.
