Hi,

Thought you might be interested in an update ??

The original problem (ie automatic backups from updraftplus not working) had nothing to do with Shield as I first thought!

I was due to cron tasks not working at all for my entire site!

I had install HTTP/SSL certificates at some point and that makes cron-tasks stop working. Thanks to this plugin (https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-crontrol/) I was able to monitor cron tasks and it had usefull error messages there.
The main issue seems to be how my provider is handling SSL certificates on his server and this generates errors with wp-cron.php (more info here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/curl-error-35-error140770fcssl-routinesssl23_get_server_hellounknown-protoc/)

Thanks for you good work ??

Hi,

I have upgraded to the new 2.5.13 and monitored the “themes-a1ec” folder.
The upgrade deleted my child theme folder again …. ??
Any ideas ?

Yep, I recovered my custom theme from my backup and used it with the new version and it worked as intended.
When the plugin is updated, is the folder public>themes-ai1ec completly overwritten or just themes directory that are bundle with the plugin.

I will be double careful next time before updating and see if this reproduce.

I am still investigating on this issue. This is really unclear what is causing this and it might not be Shield as I firstly thought! Will keep you updated.

Hi Paul,

Disabling shiled makes the problem disappear, so I figured it might be one of the settings in shield that I have enabled that prevent updraftplus or wordpress to execute the scheduled tasks.
