Overview

The WP-DBManager plugin for WordPress is designed to empower users with comprehensive database management capabilities. It allows for the optimization, repair, backup, restoration, and deletion of database backups, in addition to the ability to drop or empty tables and execute selected queries. A standout feature of the plugin is its support for automatic scheduling of database backups, optimizations, and repairs, streamlining database maintenance tasks. Upon activation, the plugin sets up a necessary folder structure and requires some initial configuration, including file movements based on server type (Apache or IIS) to ensure proper operation. Users can then configure database options via the WP-Admin interface. While the plugin provides robust features, users should be aware of security considerations related to database password visibility during operation, and those concerned may consider alternative plugins for enhanced security. Additionally, the plugin's development can be tracked on GitHub, and it includes support for translations to cater to a broader audience. Users who appreciate the plugin's functionality are encouraged to support its development through donations.

User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate this WordPress plugin for its simplicity, affordability, and logical interface. They find it invaluable for regular and instant database backups and restorations, which helps safeguard their sites from potential risks during updates or changes. The plugin allows for automation of repairs, optimizations, and backups, which many users find convenient. Positive aspects include its ease of use, reliable performance, multiple features such as scheduling and email backups, and ability to optimize database size. However, users have noted some drawbacks. Restoring does not remove new tables added after the backup, which can be cumbersome. Some users face installation issues, directory non-writability, and usability challenges with .htaccess files, leading to frustration. Infrequent updates also raise concerns about long-term compatibility with new WordPress versions.

I use this along with a Windows program called Backup4All on my server to create regular backups of my WP instances to Amazon S3. It’s also easy to do an instant db backup and then zip up the site folder with the db inside on the server if I’m doing something risky. I wanted something that was simple, affordable and logical and found this one best after testing many others. Thanks heaps!

From version 2.80.7 the menu is visible again without activated theme and plugin editor. old Since version 2.80.6 only works with activated theme and plugin editor.

I have been using this plugin for years and its working fine so far. I’m wondering why it’s not getting any updates?! It updated a year back, but it’s supporting the recent version of WordPress 5.7.2 (soon 5.8), and it’s working fine. My worry is due to compatibility issue it may give problem while restore, and it may be data risk. Hope the plugin author will update the plugin and make it compatible with current version of WordPress. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the author. Its really simple and easy backup restore and with a lot of options, especially no confusion in the settings. The plugin is worth more than 5 star. Thank You Giri
