Trinity Backup – Backup, Migrate, Restore, Clone & Schedule Backups

وضاحت

Trinity Backup is a powerful, fast, and reliable WordPress backup, migration, and restore plugin. It is built to work smoothly on any hosting — including shared hosting with strict PHP limits, timeouts, and low memory.

Whether you need to create a full site backup, migrate WordPress to a new domain, clone a staging site to production, or schedule automatic daily backups — Trinity Backup handles it all without breaking a sweat.

Why Choose Trinity Backup?

Most backup plugins fail on large sites because of PHP timeouts, memory limits, and upload restrictions. Trinity Backup solves all of that:

• Zero timeouts — Processes everything in safe, resumable AJAX chunks. Even if the browser is closed, you can continue where you left off.
• Ultra-low memory usage — Uses streaming archive technology instead of loading files into RAM. Works on hosts with 64 MB memory limits.
• Any site size — Designed for sites with thousands of posts, large media libraries, and massive databases.
• Resumable operations — Automatically resumes after interruptions, browser refreshes, or temporary server issues.
• Single-file archives — Each backup is one .trinity file that contains your entire site: database, plugins, themes, uploads, and all wp-content.

Full Site Backup & Export

Create a complete backup of your WordPress site with one click. The exported .trinity archive contains everything needed to fully restore or migrate your site:

• Database export — All tables including posts, pages, users, options, WooCommerce orders, custom post types, and any custom tables.
• Files export — All files in wp-content: plugins, themes, uploads, mu-plugins, and custom directories.
• Selective backup — Choose exactly what to include or exclude: media uploads, plugins, themes, database, spam comments.
• Auto-download — Automatically downloads the backup file to your computer after creation.
• Real-time progress — Visual progress bar and detailed log showing every step of the backup process.

One-Click Migration & Restore

Move your WordPress site to a new host, new domain, or new server with zero hassle:

• Automatic URL replacement — Intelligently replaces all old URLs with new ones across the entire database, including serialized data in options, widgets, and page builders.
• Serialized data safe — Properly handles serialized PHP data (used by most themes and plugins) so nothing breaks after migration.
• Drag & drop import — Simply drag your .trinity file into the import area or click to browse. No FTP, no phpMyAdmin, no command line needed.
• Cross-host compatible — Works across any hosting provider: cPanel, Plesk, LocalWP, Flywheel, SiteGround, Bluehost, GoDaddy, Cloudways, AWS, and more.
• Local ↔ Live — Perfect for moving sites between local development environments (LocalWP, MAMP, XAMPP, Laragon) and live servers.

Backup Management Dashboard

A clean, modern dashboard to manage all your backups:

• Backup list — View all existing backups with filename, size, creation date, and who created them.
• Bulk actions — Delete individual backups, delete all backups at once, or clean up incomplete temporary files.
• Refresh — Instantly refresh the backup list without reloading the page.
• Responsive design — Clean, card-based layout that works great on any screen size.

Dark Mode & Light Mode

Trinity Backup includes a beautiful, modern UI with full theme support:

• Light theme — Clean white design that matches the default WordPress admin.
• Dark theme — Eye-friendly dark appearance for comfortable use in low-light environments.
• Auto theme — Automatically follows your operating system’s light/dark preference.
• Instant switching — Change theme with one click, no page reload needed. Your preference is saved per user.

AES-256-GCM Encryption (Pro)

Protect your backups with military-grade encryption:

• AES-256-GCM — The same encryption standard used by banks. Your backup data is fully encrypted at rest.
• Password protection — Set a password when creating a backup. The same password is required for import.
• Secure key derivation — Uses proper cryptographic key derivation to turn your password into an encryption key.
• Streaming encryption — Files are encrypted in chunks during backup, keeping memory usage low even for encrypted backups.

Scheduled Backups (Pro)

Automate your backup routine with flexible scheduling powered by WordPress Cron:

• Multiple frequencies — Hourly, every 2/4/6/12 hours, daily, or weekly.
• Custom time selection — Choose the exact hour when daily or weekly backups should run.
• Backup retention — Automatically delete old scheduled backups. Keep the last 1–10 backups and save disk space.
• Next run display — See exactly when the next scheduled backup will run.
• Reliable execution — Uses WordPress Cron with automatic rescheduling if a run is missed.
• Exclude content — Customize what each scheduled backup includes: skip media, plugins, themes, database, or spam comments.

Pre-Update Backups (Pro)

Never lose your site to a bad update again. Trinity Backup can automatically create a full backup before any WordPress update:

• Plugin updates — Automatic backup before installing plugin updates, including bulk updates.
• Theme updates — Automatic backup before theme updates.
• Core updates — Automatic backup before WordPress core updates.
• Block failed backups — Optionally prevent the update from proceeding if the pre-update backup fails. Recommended for maximum safety.
• Single backup per batch — Bulk updates create only one backup per update run, saving disk space and time.
• Selective content — Exclude media, themes, plugins, database, or spam comments from pre-update backups.

Email Notifications (Pro)

Stay informed about every backup operation without checking the dashboard:

• Success & failure alerts — Get notified when backups complete successfully or when they fail.
• Multiple recipients — Send notifications to multiple email addresses (comma-separated).
• Event filtering — Choose which events to be notified about: manual backups, scheduled backups, pre-update backups, and imports/restores.
• Failure-only mode — Option to only receive emails when something goes wrong — no noise when everything is OK.
• Test email — Send a test email to verify your configuration works with a single click.
• HTML emails — Professional, well-formatted HTML email notifications with backup details.

WP-CLI Support (Pro)

Full command-line interface for developers, agencies, and automated deployment pipelines:

• wp trinity export — Create backups from the command line with all export options (exclude media, plugins, themes, database, spam).
• wp trinity import — Restore from a .trinity archive file by specifying the path.

• CI/CD ready — Integrate Trinity Backup into your GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Bitbucket Pipelines, or custom deployment scripts.

White Label (Pro)

• Custom description — Set a custom subtitle/description displayed on the plugin page.

• Persistent settings — All White Label settings survive plugin updates.

Flexible Export Options

Fine-tune every backup with granular exclusion options:

• Exclude media uploads — Skip the wp-content/uploads folder to create smaller backups.
• Exclude plugins — Skip the plugins directory if you only need themes and content.
• Exclude themes — Skip the themes directory.
• Exclude database — Create a files-only backup without the database.
