Add mass selection of users to Backup User Selection
Completed
In WHM » Backup » Backup User Selection, there is no way to select all, or some, accounts to enable or disable the legacy and new backup systems. Each account must be toggled individually, which is a huge problem when there are hundreds or thousands of accounts on the server.
This interface needs to be reworked to provide a way to select all accounts, or select based on a filter, to enable or disable the legacy and new backup systems en masse.
I like this idea 
cPanel, WebHost Manager and WHM are registered trademarks of cPanel, L.L.C. for providing its computer software that facilitates the management and configuration of Internet web servers.

+1 Additionally, add an option to select does backup (new or legacy) will be enabled or disabled by default, so we do not need manually enabling backup on every account after they are created.

I really don't understand why it wasn't made like this in the first place...given today's technology we're all hosting hundreds of accounts on one server.
Please bring out this feature as fast as possible.

This is a nightmare especially if you're running multiple servers, wondering if their is a config file we could just edit directly.

Indeed, it's strange it's not there yet.
If anyone finds a way to change this via SSH, please share the trick.

Agreed, it is very odd that this new backup option requires manual selection with no "select all" option and no "on by default" option.
I can not understand why this feature was not enabled by default. This makes the backup an addition to legacy backup and in no way a full replacement.
Could it be that we are all using the latest version of cPanel, which while usually stable, still has not been tested a lot and could contain issues just like this issue we found.
The features that the new backup has look awesome.

Two years later and it seems as though the option to have users being able to be backed up by default isn't there. It does seem like a strange omission.
