UpdraftPlus – Backup Plugin

Updraft Dashboard

UpdraftPlus is the backup plugin that is used by Universal Code because it is easy to use. You can see in the image below you simply have to push the backup button on your dashboard. You can see at the bottom of the image there are backup files – database, plugins, themes, uploads and others – and the restore button is there next to them.

For those that have unmanaged hosting plans, your websites will be configured to automatically backup once a week and stored in the location of your choice. The most common storage option is Google Drive, but other options are listed in the image below.
