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.

Overview

About this plugin

SBR Simple Backup & Restore is built for site owners who want a direct backup workflow without extra services, scheduling screens, or unnecessary settings.

Create a backup, upload a backup file, keep backups in one list, and restore only when you choose.

Main features:

  • Create a full backup ZIP containing WordPress files and the database.
  • Upload a backup ZIP without restoring it immediately.
  • Keep uploaded and created backups in a saved backups list.
  • Restore any saved backup manually using its Restore button.
  • Download or delete saved backups from the same screen.
  • Follow long-running jobs with percentage progress.
  • Use chunked admin jobs to reduce timeout risk on shared hosting.
  • Use low-memory streaming for backups, uploads, downloads, and restore operations.
  • Write backup archives with an append-only writer, so each chunk only costs the bytes it adds.
  • Resume a backup safely after a timeout: an interrupted chunk is discarded instead of corrupting the archive.
  • Migrate between installations with different table prefixes and different website addresses.
  • Rewrite addresses inside serialized and nested serialized data without breaking it.
  • Verify a finished archive before it appears in the backups list.

The plugin is focused on local backup and restore. It does not include cloud storage, scheduling, tracking scripts, remote services, or third-party libraries.
