Create content or full backups, restore from an archive, download archives, and
upload/import archives created on another site (demo / content packages).

A standalone, framework-free backup and restore solution built specifically for
WordPress.

Features:

  • Content backup — database + uploads. A portable demo/content package.
  • Full backup — database + uploads + plugins + themes.
  • Restore — restores the database (with automatic site-URL replacement) and
    files from any archive. Temporary tables are used so a failed restore does not
    corrupt the live database.
  • Download / upload — download archives for migration, or upload an archive
    produced by this plugin to import it.
  • Resumable engine — large backups/restores are processed step by step via
    background (loopback) requests so they survive PHP timeouts. If loopback is
    blocked, the admin page’s status polling keeps the process moving.

No external framework or library dependencies.

Where are backups stored?

wp-content/uploads/webangon-site-backup/ (protected by an `index.php` and `.htaccess`).

Archives are standard .zip files containing database.json.txt and an f/
folder with the backed-up files.

Requirements

  • PHP 7.0+.
  • A zip backend. The PHP Zip extension (ZipArchive) is preferred — it is fast and
    processes archives in resumable chunks. If it is not enabled, the plugin
    automatically falls back to PclZip, the pure-PHP zip library bundled with
    WordPress (needs only zlib / gzopen, which is almost always present). PclZip
    works everywhere but uses more memory, so very large archives are slower.
  • HTTP loopback connections enabled (recommended). If not available, the admin
    page must remain open during an operation so its polling can drive each step.

Notes

  • A Full restore of plugins/themes needs filesystem write access. On hosts
    without direct access, configure FS_METHOD / FTP_* constants in
    wp-config.php. Content restores (database + uploads) do not require this.
  • Uninstalling the plugin removes its options but leaves your backup archives in
    place.
