Backup & restore.
Always ready.
Save the full state of every WordPress site — database and files — and restore in a few clicks. No hosting panel required.
Protect client sites before something breaks. Manual or automatic backups to WP Smart cloud or your own storage — full restore in one click.
Full DB + files backup
Store database and site files in one archive — complete coverage against data loss or failed updates.
One-click restore
Pick a backup from the list, confirm the modal, and WP Smart restores the prior state — with a live progress bar.
Daily auto-backup
Set preferred time and flip the toggle — WP Smart runs an automatic backup every day at that hour.
WP Smart cloud storage
Backups land on WP Smart–managed cloud — zero setup. From 1 GB (Trial) to 10 GB (Agency) per site.
Bring your own storage
Connect Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, Dropbox, or FTP/SFTP — backups go straight to storage you control.
Estimate size first
Before starting a backup, estimate site size in MB or GB — no surprises on available space.
Storage meter
Real-time usage bar: GB used vs GB in your plan — know when it’s time to clean up.
Automatic sync
WP Smart syncs the backup list with cloud storage and drops records when backups are removed remotely.
Download backup locally
Download any backup as a ZIP in the browser — supported for WP Smart, S3, R2, and Dropbox.
Distinct backup types
Each backup shows type (full or database-only) with icon, date, time, size, and provider.
Cleanup and management
Delete stale backups from the list with a confirmation modal — removed in both DB and cloud storage.
Protected operations
Action buttons hide while backup or restore runs — no conflicting state changes.
Work with peace of mind — data is safe
Take a full backup before major changes. If something goes wrong, restore and get the site back online immediately.
Your storage, your rules
Connect Amazon S3, Cloudflare R2, Dropbox, or FTP/SFTP — backups go directly to your storage without passing through WP Smart servers. Full control of your data.
Hands-off nightly backups
Flip the toggle, pick a time (e.g. 03:00), and forget it — WP Smart backs up every night and alerts you if anything fails.
Back online in seconds
No panic after a critical error — pick the latest backup and let WP Smart rebuild the entire site for you.
Do not close this window. Maintenance mode is on until the restore finishes.
