MainWP Buddy Extension

Managing backups across many WordPress sites usually means juggling separate logins and settings screens. This extension brings the Solid Backups plugin settings for every Child site into the MainWP Dashboard, so you can monitor, schedule and adjust backups from a single screen. It works as an add-on for the MainWP Dashboard and is meant for people who already rely on Solid Backups.

Each site can follow its own backup strategy. You can choose full backups, database-only backups or files-only backups, and save distinct profiles to apply to several sites at once. Backups can be sent to remote storage, email alerts report their status, and restoration tools cover anything from a single file to a complete site move to a new host or domain.

Features

• Centralized backup management: Manage Solid Backups plugin settings for all Child sites from a single MainWP Dashboard, so you no longer need to log in to each site individually.
• Full, database or files backups: Choose a full site backup, a database-only backup or a files-only backup, and build customized backup profiles that match what each site needs.
• Flexible scheduling: Set hourly, daily, weekly or monthly schedules across all sites, or customize them for individual sites, so backups run on time without manual work.
• Off-site storage options: Send backups automatically to remote storage such as Solid Backups Stash, Amazon S3, Google Drive or Dropbox to keep copies away from the site itself.
• Email notifications: Receive email alerts about backup status and any critical issues, so you can respond quickly when something needs attention.
• Granular restoration controls: Restore specific files or roll back just the database, which allows quick fixes without restoring the whole site.
• Restoration and migration with ImportBuddy: Use the integrated ImportBuddy tool to restore complete WordPress sites or migrate them to new hosts or domains.
• Multi-site backup profiles: Create, save and apply distinct backup profiles to multiple Child sites, based on client needs and server conditions.

Best for

• Agencies managing backups for many client sites
• Freelancers who already use Solid Backups
• MainWP Dashboard users wanting one backup control panel
