 * Hi,
 * Thanks for making the plugin. Google Drive can be an ideal solution for backups.
 * Although I’m experiencing some problems with it.
 * My website is running on subdoamin in server root folder (not public_html).
 * Google Auth went ok. All seem to be ok. The only problem I have is that the folder
   [http://www.mydomain.com/backup](http://www.mydomain.com/backup) it says the 
   folder doesn’t exists.
 * Is there anything in addition that I have to do on order to activate the plugin?
 * Many thanks in advance.

 * Hi,
 * My guess is you don’t have pretty permalinks enabled.
 * I am however working on a new version of the plugin that doesn’t require pretty
   permalinks.

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for getting back to me. You are right. After enabling permalinks website
   backed up.
 * But when I run manual backup Im getting following error
 *     ```

 * You are getting those errors because you haven’t registered the request URI indicated
   by the plugin with Google’s API (through the API console).

 * Have several community sites I look after.
    I have not used your backup. Unsure
   how Google works. Have tried a couple of other backup plugin–not good especially
   when restoring. Q. where do I go for more info. on your plugin? How do you restore
   a site? Thank you

 * montaya, please ref er to [this article](http://tricksmash.com/2012/05/how-to-upload-your-wordpress-blog-to-google-drive-as-backup.html)
 * You need to restore the website manually. Keep in mind that plugin only backs
   up wp-content folder.
 * [@hel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hel/).io I still cat get it to work.
   Was the plug tested on 3.3.2

 * I just found [this thread](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/backup-plugin-error-1/page/2?replies=36).
 * Would that be also an error in my case scenario?

 * It could be the same error if you are running PHP < 5.3. If that’s the case you
   will have to wait a few days for me to finish the new version which will hopefully
   fix the issue.

       Authorization failed!
       Did not receive a refresh token.
