BackupWordPress RIP

    I have been using this plugin for years. I had Version 3.6.4 installed and never got any requests to update to a later version yet the current downloadable version is now 3.10.0.

    In any case. 3.6.4 worked fine and I was able to download backups from the Backup page and restore from backup.

    I moved to a new server this week and after the first backup on the new server, the ability to download the backup from a link on the Backup page disappeared. I downloaded the backup file via FTP. I also updated to 3.10 but after a manual backup, it didn’t make any difference. That link to download was removed.

    Looking through the last few months of *unanswered* support requests, the new company that took over the plugin apparently abandoned it about five months ago.

    Sad.

    Off to look for a replacement…
