Overview

About this plugin

Luzid Backup to Nextcloud uploads your existing WordPress backup files to a Nextcloud folder via WebDAV.

It is designed for two main workflows:

  • Automate offsite copies: upload backup archives on a schedule (WordPress Cron).
  • Manual runs + monitoring: start uploads manually and follow progress + logs.

Typical use cases:

  • Keep an offsite copy of backup archives generated by popular backup plugins.
  • Upload backups to a structured Nextcloud folder (per source, per domain).
  • Reduce storage usage with optional rotation (keep only the last N backup sets per source).

Core concepts:

  • Sources – each source represents a folder where backup files are created (UpdraftPlus, BackWPup, WPvivid, All-in-One WP Migration, Duplicator, or custom).
  • Upload – the plugin scans sources for backup files and uploads them to Nextcloud via WebDAV PUT.
  • Streaming – files larger than 2 MB are uploaded via cURL streaming (reads from disk, never loads the entire file into RAM). This prevents memory and timeout issues on shared hosting.
  • Schedule – optional daily/weekly/monthly runs at a fixed time (WordPress Cron; traffic-dependent).
  • Rotation – keep the newest N backup sets and remove older ones on Nextcloud.
  • Email Reporting – get notified on successful or failed transfers.

Features

  • Nextcloud WebDAV connection with one-click Save & Test
  • Password field with visibility toggle and browser autofill protection
  • Multiple backup sources (known plugins + custom folders)
  • File filters by extension
  • Streaming uploads for large files (low RAM usage)

  • Scheduled runs: Daily, Weekly, or Monthly (WordPress Cron)
  • Email notifications for successful/failed transfers
  • Log viewer with clear function
  • Rotation / retention (keep last N backup sets)
  • Context-aware action buttons per tab
  • German and English admin UI with integrated How-To guide
