Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →

WP PlugIndex currently records mk Simple Backups version 1.0.11 as active, updated 6y ago and tested up to WordPress 5.5.

Overview

About this plugin

On a page within the “Tools” Submenu, you’ll find a simple form which lets you choose the ingredients of a current Backup:

  • Uploads (either by scanning your Upload Directory, or by fetching Attachments from your Database)
  • Active Theme (and its parent theme, if used)
  • SQL-Dump containing the Mysql Database
  • A list of active Plugins

Backups will be stored within a folder in wp-content and be downloadable from the Backend. Once the downloads are finished, the backup files on the Server can be flushed.

What’s good:

  • Simple: Choose what is included in your Backup and download the resulting ZIP Archive from your Backend
  • Unobtrusive: It’s nested within the “Tools” submenu and comes without any bling bling, following default WP Backend Styles
  • Lightweight: 28KB zipped, 72KB unzipped

The plugin author does not take any responsibility for the safety of your data or the integrity of the generated backups.
