On of the things I want to do with backups is to add encryption of files inside the archive, mainly database and some of source files at least. But, web servers and PHP is not really well suited to handle any type of encryption due to complexity and limited resources for such operations.
After several months of development and testing, new major release of GD Press Tools Pro is here. Version 4.2 has a long changelog, but focus in this one is new backup module, new auto tagger module, Sucuri free security scan, many bugs fixed and many improvements to rest of the plugin.
GD Press Tools Pro, starting with version 4.2 has a restore and clone capability. This tutorial shows how to prepare backup and how to restore it or clone it on another location. Tutorial will change to follow changes in the GD Press Tools for both backup and restore script.

Comments OffMore changes are in for another Beta version of GD Press Tools Pro 4.2. New Beta #3 brings many fixes to backup module (email sending, tasks editor, process log), cron scheduler and XML sitemaps generator, and also adds brand new module for Sucuri Free Security Scan
It’s very close now. Another batch of bugs is fixed in this version, bringing 4.2 release one step closer. This version includes many cosmetic fixes, few real bugs and few more PHP warnings. Most important fix is the site level backup in the multisite/network environments.
No, it’s not a mistake, new GD Press Tools will have version number 4.2. And the first Beta version is here bringing all planned features very close to release status. All features should be working now, and I expect only smaller bugs remaining. Stable version will be released soon.
With more bugs fixed, mostly in the Backup module and with File Manager, and more minor changes and code cleanup, interface improvements, this will be last Alpha version. As planned, Beta #1 will be out by the end of this week, with Final version coming out next week.
