Bhairav Scheduled Cloud Backup

No, the plugin has no file size limits. It relies on your server’s PHP limits and available disk space. The plugin uses chunked uploads for large files, making it suitable for sites of any size. ZipArchive is preferred when available, with PclZip as a fallback.

Yes! You have three options: * Files Only : Backs up your entire WordPress file system (themes, plugins, uploads, etc.) * Database Only : Exports your MySQL database as a SQL file * Both : Complete site backup including files and database

Backups are stored in two locations: * Locally : wp-content/uploads/bhairav-scheduled-cloud-backup/backups/ (protected with .htaccess) * Cloud Storage : Your configured cloud storage services

You can store backups locally, in the cloud, or both simultaneously for maximum redundancy.

Yes! You can schedule backups in four ways: * Daily : Every day at a specific time * Weekly : Once per week on a specific day * Fortnightly : Every 15 days on a specific date * Monthly : Once per month on a specific date

You can also create manual backups anytime from the admin panel.

The plugin supports multiple major cloud storage providers including: * S3-compatible object storage services * Blob storage services * OAuth 2.0-based file storage services * Token-based file hosting services

You can configure multiple services and upload backups to all of them simultaneously for redundancy. Check the plugin’s admin panel for the complete list of supported services.

Services that use OAuth 2.0 for secure authentication require: 1. Create an app in your cloud provider’s developer console 2. Get your Client ID and Client Secret 3. Enter them in the plugin settings 4. Click “Authorize” to complete OAuth authentication 5. The plugin handles token refresh automatically

Detailed setup instructions are available in the plugin’s admin panel for each supported service.

Yes! Enable the “Backup Cleanup” feature and choose your retention policy: * 1 Week : Keep backups for 7 days * 1 Month : Keep backups for 30 days * 3 Months : Keep backups for 90 days * 6 Months : Keep backups for 180 days

Old backups are automatically deleted based on your settings, keeping storage costs manageable.

No. Backups run in the background via WordPress cron and don’t affect your site’s frontend performance. The plugin uses efficient file operations and chunked uploads to minimize server load. Large backups are processed in batches to prevent timeouts.

The plugin creates standard ZIP files and SQL exports that can be restored using: * WordPress import tools * phpMyAdmin for database restoration * FTP/SSH for file restoration * Your hosting provider’s backup restoration tools

Yes! The plugin works with both single-site and multisite WordPress installations. For multisite, backups are created per site.

If a cloud upload fails, the backup is still saved locally. The plugin logs errors and continues with other configured cloud services. You’ll receive an email notification if any uploads fail.

Yes! All backups are stored in your chosen cloud storage with your credentials. The plugin uses OAuth 2.0 for supported services, and secure credential storage for other services. No data is sent to third-party servers. The plugin follows WordPress security best practices.
