Must have add-on for XenForo. Gives you the freedom of knowing you have a "plan". Everything works as expected. I would suggest to get a separate storage server and setup a file script to copy the backup files incase of a hardware failure. Or get the paid add-on for this!

Thanks for testing on 1.4.7. I haven't upgraded yet!
Since i prefer to switch the Forum & DB off during backups this is an excellent solution! Easy to setup and everything works great, thank you!

Thanks Mike.
Great addon. Save yourself from nightmare. No need to manually create crontab again. Dev responded fast to fix a bug. An offsite backup will be great to Dropbox/Onedrive will be great. Pretty please :D

Thanks Sheratan
A very useful tool for make backups of my forum, I tested and works perfect witout any bugs, there are many options to configure backups of files or database. Before this addon I realized this task manually, but now all is automatic :) Thanks! @SneakyDave

Thanks CarlosMST
So far so good. Installed and did a quick run of the cron to test it out. Backup was a success. Nervous about relying on a plugin to do the job but a good backup is better than no backup! Thanks for this.

Thanks, I agree completely. Nervous about using an add-on, but it's better than not having one.

Thanks for the review!. Please make sure to download version 1.0.2a (today sometime) to fix a problem reported with the Copies class.
Absolutely a must-have addon. What else can you say? Works great on VPS and on lesser-powered servers, just need a bit more time between backups on the slower ones to keep them from locking out the board. After a few weeks of feeling out this time spacing it runs like clockwork, every day, without fail.

Thanks for the review Floyd!
I migrated from vB to XF and used a similar type MOD with vB, so this was one of the first add-ons I was looking for. I'm a bit more experienced now than when I started out with vB, so setup of the [SolidMean] ForumBackup add-on was a breeze.

I want to THANK SneakyDave for making the effort to create this add-on and putting up with all the people not reading the thread for the excellent help information contained within.

The included readme.txt file was all I needed to get it running, yet it seems some questions are asked over and over in the discussion of the add-on. MUCH to SneakyDave's credit his discussion thread is only 15 pages, whereas the similar MOD I used on vB had 40+ pages of questions from confused & frustrated users.

Overall, this is a TOP NOTCH add-on I'm quite happy to have found.

Thanks goodfella, I really appreciate it.
A fantastic plugin. Works perfectly and isn't overly complicated to use. I also really appreciate that the developer continues to release updates. If you're considering this plugin definitely get the dropbox addon, it's totally worth the money!

Thanks for the great review electrogypsy. I appreciate it.
I must have say this app is perfect. More than 400K Member - 500k post- 200k threads and this app took database backup in 2 minutes. All files were backed up in 30 seconds No bugs and works perfectly:)

Great to heae. Thanks for the review!
Great add-on for keeping multiple copies of your data in case of emergency! :)

Thanks Clickfinity!
Awesome plugin. I've been using this for quite a while now and haven't had any issues. I like how it doesn't create multiple backups on your server, instead it replaces your current ones with the newest backup. I highly suggest using this!

Great addon. Im using it on private VPS and cronjob is very quick and smooth, it took about 1 minute to backup 1500 memebers and 60k posts and theards.

Thanks Commander!
This add-on is a great solution for boards with busy administrators who need an automated system for backups to ensure a healthy forum board. We've been using it for awhile and we're very pleased with it! :)
