Notes

BackUpWordPress utilizes several Open Source Tools:

• PEAR
• FILE_ARCHIVE for compression/decompression
• bigdump for staggered sql import

Some pieces of code have been modified:

• backupwordpress\Archive\Writer\Tar.php has been debugged around line 80 to handle long filenames according to http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=10144&edit=3

Changelog

Changelog:

Changes in 0.4.5 + fix prevents users from setting wp-content as backup repository. The directory must be one that can be secured with .htaccess. + fixes the default admin issue reported here: http://wpforum.designpraxis.at/topic/error-invalid-argument-supplied-for-foreach-?replies=2#post-322

Changes in 0.4.4 + another even more important security fix.

Changes in 0.4.3 + security fix for RFI vulnerability reported on http://www.milw0rm.com/exploits/4593

Changes in 0.4.2 + prevent unpriviledged users from seeing the BackUpWordPress Dashboard

Changes in 0.4.1 + added test for empty array in bkpwpgetexcludelist() + all mkdir() calls use mode 0777 + backup archive permissions chage to 0777 (should solve issues with users not being able to delete archive files)

Changes in 0.3.2: + added capabilities managebackups and downloadbackups + backup repository secured by .htaccess

Changes in 0.2.7:

• manage presets. link to configure excludelists corrected
• require_once instead of require for class-phpmailer.php
• Sajax is replaces by prototype. this resolves the "backup hangs" bug on hosts with hardened php (registerglobals: off, safemode: on, etc.)

Changes in 0.2.6:

• unable to delete backup presets bug fixed

Changes in 0.2.5:

• some smaller improvements

Changes in 0.2.4:

• logfile prints out WordPress and BackUpWordPress version for easier posting at http://wpforum.designpraxis.at/
• BackUpWordPress displays "Your backup is being processed" instead of the actions links on the Manage Backups screen as long as archiving is not finished

Changes in 0.2.1:

• old Logfiles are deleted. 10 times the amount of the configured amount of backups to keep is kept.
• feature: backups are done in kind of a staggered process: if BackUpWordPress runs into a server side time-out, BackUpWordPress tries to trigger an single scheduled event for finishing the task. Corresponding dialoques appear on the Manage Backups - screen.

Changes in 0.1.4:

• @settimelimit(0) in functions.php line 277 supresses the 'Cannot set time limit in safe mode' warning
• dialoques streamlined: e.g. when you click "delete" on a backup archive, you just need to hit enter to delete it

• ajax problems fixed
• schedules last run timestamp fixed

Changes in 0.1.2:
