PERFECT BACKUP for Categories Users Comments

  • I’ve used this just a few times in the past 18 months. And one time it was an incredible, urgent need as there were no server backups available from a web host (not with them anymore). Another time I made a mistake and deleted some comments.

    Anyway, this is only the 2nd review for this plugin within the past year or so. And I see a lot of negative scored posts. After reading them, I noticed a number of the 1-star reviews seemed to be user error. I’ve been in IT Management, development, and consulting for 4 decades. I use very little custom coding on my sites because, in my past experience, there are far less issues during updates and upgrades. So, with that said, I have also noticed there are a lot of optional settings to decide when using this tool. And many are preselected that I unselect. I recommend taking your time when using this tool and defining your own settings every time you use it.

    I use about 20 plugins and there’s no interference with any of them. But, I am careful about which plugins I retain. Also, I use this plugin just create backups or to perform restores from them. Then, I uninstall it until I need it again. For example, I’m here today because I’m getting ready to use it again as I’m about to make some major category changes. It will be very handy to use this tool to perform backups (and any needed restores) instead of using a site restore that will reset recent work on posts or pages.

    I use this as an additional backup and as an archive for all my sites. It’s always saved me when I needed it and I’ve found it to be reliable and solid. It’s been absolutely perfect for me when performing work on tags and categories so I don’t have to use a site restore.

    Hi @jeffbaygents, that’s great!

    Thank you for sharing your feedback.

    Plugins can indeed have an impact on the export/import process, as you mentioned.

    By the way, as you have a lot of experience with development and management, we are always excited to have new contributors as part of the WordPress project in case you would like to get more involved with the community. ??
