Akeeba Backup Core for WordPress is an open-source, free of charge backup plugin for WordPress, quite a bit different\nthan the others. Its mission is simple: create a full site backup (files and database) that can be restored on any\nWordPress-capable server. Even without having WordPress already installed.<\/p>\n\n
Akeeba Backup creates a full backup of your site in a single archive. The archive contains all the files,\na database snapshot and a web installer which is as easy to use as WordPress' famous five minute installation procedure.\nThe backup and restore process is AJAX powered to avoid server timeouts, even with huge sites. Serialised data is\nhandled automatically. Our long experience \u2013the backup engine is being continuously developed and perfected since 2006\u2013\nguarantees that. You can also make a backup of only your database, or only your site's files.<\/p>\n\n
If you want a reliable, easy to use, open source backup solution for your WordPress site, you've found it!<\/p>\n\n
Important note<\/em>: The software, its documentation<\/a>\n and video tutorials<\/a> are\n provided free of charge. Personalised support is not free; it requires paying for a support subscription. That's what\n pays the bills and lets us keep on writing good quality software full time.<\/p>\n\n Features:<\/p>\n\n and much, much more!<\/p>\n\n Indicative uses:<\/p>\n\n Restoring your backups requires extracting them first. If you are restoring to a different server you need to download\nour free of charge Akeeba Kickstart script<\/a> from our site.\nIf you are restoring on the same server you can simply use the integrated restoration feature in the plugin itself.<\/p>\n\n If you need to extract a backup archive on your Windows, Linux or Mac OS X computer you can use our free of charge\nAkeeba eXtract Wizard<\/a>\ndesktop software.<\/p>\n\n More features<\/a> are available in the\nseparate product called \"Akeeba Backup Professional for WordPress\" which you can only download after purchasing a\nsupport subscription<\/a> on our site. This\nincludes automatically transferring your backups to Amazon S3, Dropbox, OneDrive, Box.com and another 40+ storage\nproviders for safekeeping. Clarification: these features are NOT available in Akeeba Backup CORE for WordPress available\nfrom WordPress.org. These premium features are only provided as a thank-you to people who choose to support us\nfinancially by purchasing a support subscription on our site.<\/p>\n\n\n Please use our Contact Us page<\/a> to file a bug report. Make sure that you\nindicate \"Bug report\" in the Category selection. We will review your bug report and work to fix it. We may contact you\nfor further information if necessary. If we don't contact you be assured that if you did report a bug we are already\nworking on fixing it.<\/p><\/dd>\n The plugin is quite big (around 4Mb). Most servers have an upload limit of 2Mb. You can either ask your host to increase\nthe file upload limit to 5Mb or you can install the plugin manually. Please see the Installation section for more\ninformation.<\/p><\/dd>\n The first thing you should do is read our extensive documentation<\/a>\nand our troubleshooter<\/a>. If you'd like to receive\npersonalised support from the developers of the plugin you can subscribe<\/a>\nto our services. Due to the very specialised nature of the software and our goal of providing exceptional support we do\nnot outsource our support. All support requests are answered by the developers who write the software. This is why we\nrequire a subscription to provide support.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. We have added full WordPress multi-sites support since late 2014. You can restore backups to different servers or\nlocations and things will still work.<\/p><\/dd>\n Not a problem! You've probably used a lot of tools to try and manually replace serialised data after moving your site to\na different domain or directory and you were worried because they don't always work very well. We have implemented our\nown tokeniser and assembler for serialised data which works the same way PHP works under the hood. Simply put, our\nsolution doesn't use precarious regular expressions and isn't even the least inclined on killing your serialised data.<\/p>\n\n Please note that for data replacement to work properly all of your plugins must be storing their data in UTF-8 encoding\nin the database. Some themes use a double encoding which may result in invalid data. Unfortunately that's a problem with\nthese themes and we can't fix it. On the other hand these themes' developers seem to be aware of this issue and provide\ntheir own settings export and import. If your theme provides such a feature please use it. We can't reliably work around\nthird party code not following the character encoding standards established well over twenty years ago...<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes, in full. Akeeba Backup will work no matter if your site uses UTF8MB4 or the old UTF-8 encoding. If you backup a\nsite with data encoded in UTF-8 the restoration will work on a server supporting UTF8MB4. Going the opposite way will\nnot work because of a MySQL restriction. If you end up with truncated text or MySQL errors on restoration that's the\nreason. In this case you will have to ask your host to update their version of MySQL to 5.5 or later.<\/p><\/dd>\n Akeeba Backup for WordPress requires PHP 5.3.04 or any later version. Older versions of PHP including PHP 4, 5.0, 5.1,\n5.2 and 5.3.0 up to and including 5.3.03 are not supported. We recommend using PHP 5.4 or later for security and\nperformance reasons: PHP 5.4 is seven times faster than PHP 5.2 according to our benchmarks.<\/p>\n\n Akeeba Backup for WordPress has been tested on WordPress 3.8 and later. It should work on earlier versions of WordPress\nbut we cannot guarantee this.<\/p>\n\n Akeeba Backup for WordPress requires at least 16Mb of PHP memory (memory_limit). We strongly suggest 64Mb or more for\noptimal operation on large sites with hundreds of media files and hundreds of thousands of comments.<\/p>\n\n Some features may require the PHP cURL extension to be installed and activated on your server. If unsure ask your host.<\/p>\n\n Finally, you need adequate disk space to take a backup of your site. As a rule of thumb, that's about 80% the current\nsize of your site's public web directory (usually called public_html, htdocs, httpdocs, www or something in the like).<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes, of course! Our plugin is licensed under the GNU General Public License version 3 or, at your option, any later\nversion of the license published by the Free Software Foundation. This license gives you the same Four Freedoms as\nWordPress' license; in fact, GPLv3 is simply a newer version of the same GPLv2 license WordPress is using, one which\nprotects your interests even more.<\/p><\/dd>\n Akeeba Backup is available in three different packages. Akeeba Backup for WordPress is designed to backup and restore\nWordPress sites. Akeeba Backup for Joomla! does the same for Joomla! sites. Akeeba Solo is our standalone backup\nsoftware which support WordPress, Joomla!, Magento, PrestaShop, phpBB3 and many other CMS and scripts.
