-----------
Click add new under the plugin section.
Search updraft plus.
Install and activate the plugin.
After activating the plugin, go to updraft settings, we need to configure it for work.
You will see a migrate or clone option here, which is not free. I already have a video on how to migrate one website to another domain. You can see that.
Our main work is in the settings section.
At first set the file backup schedule. What is the frequency you like to take backup automatically? I prefer weekly.
Do the same in the database backup option too.
On the right side, you can choose how many backups you want to store your storage. If you choose 2, then only the last 2 backups will be saved. And the previous backup files will be deleted.
Now choose the remote storage. Several options are there including dropbox, google drive, onedrive, etc.
After selecting your choice, you must authenticate that with updraft plus.
I am authenticating with dropbox here. After allowing the access, it will redirect you to the updraft plus website.
Press complete setup.
You see, the authentication is done.
But one thing we must care about is the settings we did before, were not saved. So, we will set that again.
You can enable the email box if you want to get an update whenever the updraft plus plugin creates a backup. I don't want this, thats why I am not skipping.
Press save changes.
Our settings process is complete.
Now we will take a backup of this website.
Click backup now.
The process will be started.
Here you see the backup files.
This time we will show you how to restore these files.
I will delete some images, plugins and some important files now so that I can figure out the ultimate result of restoration.
You see, the website structure is broken.
Let us restore the files from here.
Select the components to restore.
Click next.
Click restore.
Restore is successful.
Return to updraft plus configuration.
Let's check our website.
Yes. We got our website back. Everything is fine now.
Our deleted plugins also appeared here.
So, this is the process of how to do backup and restore your wordpress website by updraft plus backup plugin.
If you have any question on this, then feel free to ask me in the comment section.

@@WpWiki Of course, I already did ;)
Thanks for the video. Help. Why do my download plugins say "Remote fetch failed" No local copy present" ? same message for themes "Remote fetch failed" No local copy present" ? Do I need to open my Dropbox account?
Where do I find the file in drop box
Waiting until scheduled time to retry because of errors
This is displaying
One of my upload zip file is roughly 360 MB and every time I try to download it, it only downloads roughly 80MB and the zip file is corrupted. How do I fix this issue?
Many thanks indeed! I'm a non-techie with little experience but your video was excellent. One question please.... a few weeks ago, I 'pushed' / migrated my Staging site to become my updated 'live' site. I've made various changes to the live site: however, is there a way that I can update my Staging site so that it replicates my live site? :)
Yes, absolutely
😢and how about the backup now button is not available?
Thank you!

Hi actually i created a website on different WordPress account and now i want to upload it on another WordPress account with different domain and everything how can i do it? I have the zip file of previous website.
you can migrate your web design in different domain. search "How To Migrate WordPress Site to Another Domain"
Hi! When I do the restore it does not work and wants me to delete my old files! My website crashed so I am not sure if I should click the "delete old files" and make it worst! Can you help me out?
Yes you should click it. worked In my case.
How to restore when your site is broken and you have no access to the wp-admin?
do you have the backup file?
@@WpWiki Yes I do, yesterday I just deleted the website and uploaded the backup files to a new website I created (same domain name). But I would absolutely love to know how to save the website rather than deleting it and restarting with a new one. Is there a way?🤔
Can we somehow rename those backups to something relevant/descriptive in the plugin itself (not dropbox)? that would be great... so that I know what is what
Don't rename. To identify, check date
I would really like this option as well. Now I have to keep a log outside of this plugin to denote which backup contains which changes I made! I with you.....
Customer support has not answered two requests for help. My experience is not good if there is a problem or glitch.😥
Then please use "wpvivid backup plugin" as alternative. I personally use that.
@@WpWiki thank you!!
I believe only Premium users get phone or email support. The free version says to use the forums or ask on the WordPress plugin page.
I do have an Active UpdraftPlus Premium account yet received no answer to my e-mail requests for help. Very disappointing.
Thank you! @@WpWiki
thanks

how to restore backup files stored in google derive?

this is worthless if you cant even access or login to your WP website dashboard to get to it
I lost my products after I backup
after backup or restore?
How do you restore just your web pages?
You only need to restore the database as that is where the pages are stored.
