Using Google Drive for Storage?
Also own a self hosted WordPress blog?
There’s a new WordPress backup plugin that integrates with Google drive.
Download the new Backup to Google Drive plugin which enables you to backup selected files and databases to your Google drive account.
Create Client I.D & Secret
Once you’ve installed and activated the plugin, login to your Google account and:
- Go to the Google API Access section and create a client i.d & client Secret.
You’ll then get something looking like this:
Configure Google Account
Paste the API key and secret into the fields.
Backup Settings
Select the directories you want to backup to Google drive as well as the database you want copied and you’re done.
Conclusion
This is a new plugin and the only one for this purpose at the moment.
Another option is to use the backup to Dropbox plugin.
I tried this but I get the message
‘Not response”
Any help in this would be appreciated !
Use backup to Dropbox instead
Sorry to hear that Durga. Its a new plugin. May have a few bugs and the only one of this kind at the moment. Worked when i tested it so i’ll update this post when there’s an update or another author of this type.
