I found a great little plugin this week.
Titled “WordPress Backup to Dropbox” is free, with a couple of “premium” addons if you want to zip up your backups or receive email notification on success or failure.
It initially backs up all designated folders, and then on a schedule you determine it runs an incremental backup daily, weekly etc.
Support seems a little lax, as I encountered a problem which other users had also come across, but there was evidently no solution.
The problem was that the plugin stopped backing up after a change to the configuration – in my case I simply requested that the backups were saved in a named sub-folder.
The solution turned out to be quite simple, de-activate and delete the plugin completely, clear any cached files, and re-install – designating the correct sub-folder BEFORE attempting a backup.
Cruisy!
