<p><strong>⚠️ WARNING</strong></p>
<p><strong>Database Backups for WordPress is no longer actively maintained.</strong></p>
<p>This software is still free to use under the license provided, but users should be aware that it is not currently maintained. No additional releases, including security releases, will be made available.</p>
<p>Backup your database instantly, send the backup via email, or schedule backups to run automatically.</p>
<p>Database Backup for WordPress allows you to quickly back up your core WordPress database tables, and either download the backup as a gzipped file, or send it via email to an address you choose.</p>
<p>By default, the plugin will always back up all the core WordPress database tables. However, you may also selectively back up any custom tables that might be created by other plugins.</p>
<p>Additional options include the ability to exclude spam comments from the comments table, or post revisions from the posts table, saving you space and bandwidth.</p>
<p>You can also enable scheduled backups to run automatically at set intervals, and configure the email address to send the scheduled backups to.</p>
<h4>Backup Before You Mess Up</h4>
<p>Backups are the one thing you don’t think of until you need them. You might have the best web host, the most secure server, and a tried and tested process for running plugin, theme, or core updates. But all it takes is one little thing to go wrong, and you lose your entire website.</p>
<p>You need a reliable and automated solution which backs up your WordPress data and sends it to an off-site location. Database Backup for WordPress is that solution.</p>
<h4>Why You Should Back Up Your Website</h4>
<p>As much planning as you do, any CMS like WordPress that stores its data in a database is vulnerable. Hardware, software, and security hiccups are rare, but they do happen. Even the best enterprise systems in the world have multiple levels of backup in place.</p>
<p>Think about the data you store in your WordPress site. Your blog posts since the day you launched the site. Your customers, products, and order history if you run an ecommerce site. Backups are like implementing an insurance policy for your data. With backups, you have a reliable way of restoring that data if anything goes wrong.</p>
<p>Simple, automated backups save you time and give you peace of mind that you are prepared for the worst case scenario, even if you never need it. Better to have it and not need it, than to not have it and suddenly need it.</p>
<h4>Scheduled Backups</h4>
<p>Depending on your needs, you might want to back up your database every few minutes, hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly. You’ll want to automate this process, or it becomes another possible point of failure.</p>
<p>Scheduled backups give you peace of mind that your data is being backed up as much or as little as you need, without your intervention. By emailing the backups to an email address you choose, you can verify that the backup has run, and store it in a safe location.</p>

Database Backup for WordPress

Very good plugin thanks, it does what it says.

Works great

This is an excellent database plugin. I have daily host-level backups, and once a month I take a full cPanel backup, but as a belt and braces approach I now have daily database backups being sent to an email address, and filtered to a backup folder. Hope I never need them, but if I do I will be relieved to see these archived.

Install, activate, setup and forget ... until needed

Database Backup for WordPress is your one-stop database backup solution for WordPress.

Duplicator – Backups & Migration Plugin – Cloud Backups, Scheduled Backups, & More

You have to do some leg work with this plugin to create a database depending on what hosting you use, but the amount of time saved and the integrity of your transferred data is well taken care of with this plugin.

Works like a charm

This made moving my wordpress site to a new server SO EASY AND PAINLESS (only needed the free version too). A+

Works so great, A+

Very useful for moving website from localhost to live server. Thank you!

Excellent plugin

importing is only available ip PRO version.

pathetic plugin

Best backup and migration plugin


The free version worked without a hitch. [BIG problems getting BlueHost issues squared away. Their support team is clueless. None of it was an issue with Duplicator!]


Free Version Worked Without A Hitch

Excellent free tool for moving your site in a self contained single file. Thx!


I've been using Duplicator for a few years now and it has saved me so much time doing from manual migrations. There are some substantial limitations for larger websites in the free version, but for most website the free version is more than sufficient. 


Easy-to-use and all-in-one solution for migration

just great


It does not update to a new version, when installing on a new website you enter a password to install and then there is only an advertisement for the PRO version. Hell, yesterday everything worked as it should and today it's a total flop and manual work. Back to the trees.


New version total fail

Works perfectly every time


Duplicator is a solid plugin for WordPress migration and backup. Trusted over years. Thank you guys.


Solid plugin
