Product Description

MainWP BackWPUp extension connects the BackWPup backup plugin to the MainWP Dashboard, allowing centralized backup management for multiple WordPress websites. It provides a single interface to configure, schedule, and monitor backups across all connected child sites.

Key Features

• Centralized Backup Control: Create and manage BackWPup backup jobs for all child sites directly from the MainWP Dashboard without logging into individual sites.
• Schedule Management: Set backup schedules for each child site including frequency, time, and retention policies from the central dashboard.
• Backup Monitoring: View backup status, last successful backup date, and error logs for all sites in a single overview screen.
• Job Configuration: Configure backup destinations, file exclusions, database table selections, and compression settings per site or in bulk.
• Status Alerts: Receive notifications when backups fail or when scheduled jobs miss their execution window.

How It Works

The extension requires both MainWP Dashboard (on the management site) and BackWPup plugin (on each child site). Once connected, all BackWPup settings become accessible from the central dashboard, eliminating the need to log into each site individually.

Use Cases

Website management agencies, freelance developers maintaining multiple client sites, and IT departments overseeing corporate WordPress installations use this extension to standardize backup procedures across their site portfolio.
