Ever wondered what’s different in your WordPress site from one backup to the next?
If you backup using ZIP file copying, then this is a difficult question to answer.
ZIP files are huge bundles of all your WordPress files, so peeking inside to see what’s in there is not an quick thing to do.
See Inside Your WordPress Backups with WorpDrive
WorpDrive lets you see exactly what’s different between any backup of your site and the previous one.
You can see a full list of:
- all files added to your site since the previous backup
- all files changed on your site since the previous backup
- all files removed from site since the previous backup
The benefits of examining your WordPress backups
Websites are dynamic, ever-changing.
This is especially true of WordPress websites.
When you manage your WordPress websites, it’s easy to perform task here and there, edit a file, update a plugin, change your theme and before you know it you load up your site one day and you spot something that’s broken on your site.
You can use the file change-list feature of WorpDrive to track all the changes that have happened to your files and spot perhaps the theme update, or plugin update, that brought about the change you didn’t want.
Examining WordPress backups helps keep your website secure
At any time, if you ever think your WordPress site has been hacked or compromised in any way, you can review your file lists to see what was added, changed, or remove for any day.
Once you’ve found the problem, you can immediately start to fix your hacked website.
The easiest way is to restore, which WorpDrive helps you do in minutes, but with change lists, you can pinpoint the exact day to restore to. No more guessing!
With change lists, you can be proactive about protecting your site against intrusion, by examining the changes every day. WorpDrive will help you monitor your site so you can detect unwanted intrusion as soon as it happens.
Of course, WorpDrive isn’t a substitute for solid security principles.
