It is designed for performance and reliability, using streaming-based processing to reduce memory pressure during backup and restore operations. Key features include: – One-click backup and restore – Automated scheduling (Daily, Weekly, Monthly) – Email notifications for scheduled backup results – Site migration and import/export support – Streaming-based processing to support larger backup and restore operations – Resumable backup and restore process – Lightweight and performance optimized #### Scheduled Backups Codeavour Smart Backup & Restore includes built-in scheduled backups powered by WordPress WP-Cron. Site administrators can enable automatic backups from the Codeavour Smart Backup & Restore Settings page and choose a Daily, Weekly, or Monthly schedule. Scheduled backup options include: – Enable or disable automatic backups – Choose the backup frequency – Select the backup time using the site’s WordPress timezone– Choose the weekly day or monthly date when needed – Send email notifications after scheduled backup runs The scheduled backup event runs through the plugin’s background backup engine, so it uses the same backup process as manual backups. Backup archives are stored in the Codeavour Smart Backup & Restore backup directory and appear in the dashboard backup list. WP-Cron depends on site traffic. If no one visits the site near the scheduled time, WordPress may run the backup later when the next request reaches the site. For production sites that need exact timing, configure a real server cron to call WordPress cron regularly. ## Screenshots [⌊Backup Dashboard: Create one-click backups, monitor backup status, view archive statistics, and manage recovery points from a single dashboard.⌉⌊Backup Dashboard: Create one-click backups, monitor backup status, view archive statistics, and manage recovery points from a single dashboard.⌉[ Backup Dashboard: Create one-click backups, monitor backup status, view archive statistics, and manage recovery points from a single dashboard.

Yes, it uses a streaming engine designed for large sites, capable of handling archives. ### Can I migrate my site to another server? Yes, import/export functionality supports full site migration. ### How do scheduled backups work? Scheduled backups use the WordPress WP-Cron system. Codeavour Smart Backup & Restore registers a scheduled event and runs the backup at the selected Daily, Weekly, or Monthly interval. WP-Cron runs when the site receives traffic, so the backup may run slightly later than the selected time on low-traffic sites. ### Do scheduled backups use the same engine as manual backups? Yes. Scheduled backups run through the same streaming backup engine used by manual backups. The scheduled process runs in the background and creates a normal `.wpbak` archive. ### Why did my scheduled backup not run at the exact selected time? WordPress WP-Cron is traffic based. If the site has no visitors at the scheduled time, WordPress waits until the next request to run due cron events. For stricter timing, use a real server cron that triggers `wp-cron.php`. ### Why are email notifications not arriving? Email notifications require the scheduled backup email option to be enabled and a valid notification email address to be saved. On local servers such as XAMPP, WordPress usually needs SMTP configuration before `wp_mail()` can send email. ### What happens to existing backup files if the plugin is uninstalled? Codeavour Smart Backup & Restore stores backup archives in its server-side backup directory. If the plugin is uninstalled, those existing backup files remain on the server unless they are removed manually. If the plugin is installed again later, the plugin will detect the existing backup archives and display them again in the backup list. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Codeavour Smart Backup & Restore” is open source software.
