Descripción

DailyBkup is a lightweight WordPress backup plugin that automatically backs up your entire site — files and database — and uploads the archive to Dropbox.

No complicated setup. No third-party backup services. Just configure once and your site is protected every day.

Why DailyBkup?

Most backup plugins are bloated, slow, or charge a monthly fee just to store your backups. DailyBkup is different:

Your storage, your files — backups go straight to your own Dropbox account
Files + database — both packaged into a single ZIP archive per run
Schedule it once — configure a daily server cron and forget about it
Restore anytime — download or restore directly from the plugin dashboard
Activity logs — every backup run is logged so you know exactly what happened

Features

✅ Scheduled daily WordPress backups via server cron
✅ Full site backup — WordPress files, themes, plugins, and uploads
✅ Database backup — complete SQL snapshot included
✅ Dropbox cloud storage — uploads directly to your Dropbox folder
✅ One-click on-demand backup — run a backup any time from the dashboard
✅ Restore from backup — restore files and database from any stored backup
✅ Retention & cleanup — automatically keep only the last N backups
✅ Activity log — full history of backup and restore jobs
✅ Backup scope control — backup files only, database only, or both
✅ Runtime strategy — tune compression for shared hosting or VPS

How It Works

Connect your Dropbox account using your own App Key and App Secret
Set a backup folder path in Dropbox (e.g. /dailybkup)
Configure the provided cron command in your hosting control panel (cPanel, Plesk, etc.)
DailyBkup runs automatically every day, uploads the backup archive to Dropbox, and logs the result

On-Demand Backup & Restore

You don’t have to wait for the scheduled run. Go to DailyBkup On-Demand to:

Run a full backup right now
Browse backup files stored in Dropbox
Restore your site files, database, or both from any backup

Who Is This For?

WordPress site owners who want simple, reliable daily backups
Developers managing client sites who need hands-off automated backups
Anyone who has lost a site before and never wants it to happen again

FAQ

Where are my backups stored?: Backups are uploaded directly to the Dropbox folder you configure on the Cloud Providers screen. They are stored in your own Dropbox account — not on any DailyBkup servers.
Do I need a paid Dropbox account?: No. A free Dropbox account works. Free Dropbox accounts include 2 GB of storage. If your site is larger, you may need a paid plan.
How do I set up the cron job?: Go to DailyBkup Settings. The plugin generates the exact cron command for your server. Copy it and paste it into your hosting panel’s cron job manager (cPanel Cron Jobs). The plugin also shows the exact Minute, Hour, Day, Month, and Weekday values for cPanel’s scheduler.
Does it back up both files and the database?: Yes. DailyBkup packages your WordPress files into a frontend ZIP archive and exports your database into a backend ZIP archive. Both are uploaded to Dropbox in a single backup run.
Can I exclude folders from the backup?: Yes. Go to DailyBkup Settings and add folder paths to the exclusion list. Common items like wp-content/cache are excluded automatically.
Can I run a backup manually without waiting for the cron?: Yes. Go to DailyBkup On-Demand and click Start Backup to run a full backup immediately.
Can I restore my site from a backup?: Yes. Go to DailyBkup On-Demand, select a cloud provider and backup file, choose the restore scope (files, database, or both), and click Start Restore.
Is this plugin compatible with shared hosting?: Yes. The Runtime Strategy setting in DailyBkup Settings lets you tune backup compression and pacing for shared hosting, VPS, or dedicated server environments.
What PHP version is required?: PHP 8.0 or higher is required.
Does the free version support providers other than Dropbox?: The free version supports Dropbox only. DailyBkup Pro adds AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, Google Drive, Azure Blob Storage, SFTP, and DigitalOcean Spaces.
