Backups are saved to `wp-content/tiny-backup` by default. ### Can I change the destination directory? The destination cannot be changed intentionally. If there are many requests, we may add this feature. ### Are scheduled backups supported? Yes. As of version 1.3.0, you can configure automatic backups for database and files independently using WP-Cron. Options include daily, weekly, and monthly schedules. ### Does scheduled backup run at the exact time I set? WP-Cron is triggered by site visits, so the actual execution time may differ slightly from the configured time on low-traffic sites. The backup will run on the next page load after the scheduled time. ### What folders can I select for file backup? You can select the entire uploads folder or individual subfolders directly under it. Subfolders of subfolders are not selectable. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Tiny Backup” is open source software.
