OLN-287 Backups do not save emoji icons, videos and preferences

It should restore everything, including videos and server preferences.

This is not how it's designed, export is for exporting documents not as a backup of the server. Which export option are you using? There are three…

I see, it makes sense! I tested it with JSON

I believe that videos and emoticon icons could be included, though. But I understand if that's not the intended use. I'm using a full server backup now.
