ChunkSafe Backup & Restore

ChunkSafe Backup & Restore is a WordPress plugin designed to create reliable backups of both site databases and files. It addresses the challenge of backing up large WordPress sites by processing backups in resumable chunks across cron ticks, which helps prevent timeouts during the backup process. The plugin supports both full and partial backups, allowing users to select specific components such as the database, uploads, plugins, or themes. Backups can be stored locally, sent to FTP servers, or uploaded to Amazon S3 and other S3-compatible providers through a pluggable destination interface. Users can schedule automatic backups and set retention policies to manage how many backup copies are kept. For security, archives can be encrypted using AES-256 encryption, and each archive is protected with a per-archive checksum. The restoration process includes a pre-restore safety snapshot and dry-run validation, which helps ensure that restores do not inadvertently overwrite or damage existing site data. Additionally, the plugin offers a migration mode that performs a serialized-safe search-and-replace of the site URL, facilitating site moves or domain changes without corrupting serialized data structures. ChunkSafe Backup & Restore is intended for WordPress site administrators and owners who require automated, secure, and reliable backup and restore capabilities. The plugin operates within the WordPress environment, integrating with its scheduling system and supporting various remote storage destinations.
