WP Backup Saved My Bacon… Thank you!!

  • Wednesday morning, 9/2/2015, I awoke to find the content was missing from my site, LearnMMD.com. The theme was still online, but no pages and no blog posts… and no images in the Library. Four years of work, 355 posts and thousands of images were gone! … a couple of hours on the phone with my host, GoDaddy, found that my database had crashed and had broken tables.

    I have the WP Backup plugin set to backup my database every Friday… and I was able to RESTORE from the previous Friday, 8/28/2015. …

    SUCCESS… with only one post lost, posted 8/31, after the backup was run.

    WP Backup saved my bacon!

    Follow-up: … Working with GoDaddy, we found that GoDaddy had a more recent backup dated 8/30/2015… and they did RESTORE their version so that my loss was even less.
