Disable Automatic Backup before updating plugin / themes

[KKParticipant]

Hi,

I enabled to update plugin / theme before updates but site is too big as I have also enabled to backup core and it take too much time to complete the job.

Is it possible to backup only the plugins folder or themes folder instead of whole site? Or is it possible to backup on plugin / theme which is being used?

Or, how can I disable this feature?

Looking forward to hear from you.

Thanks

Hi Karim,

When you are updating a plugin or theme, UpdraftPlus’s automatic backup already does only back up that entity, plus the database. At least, that’s what it should be doing.

Hi David,

It always hangs at my end, I guess because I have selected wp-core as well.

Can you please tell me how can I disable this option?

Looking forward to hear from you.

Thanks

Hi Karim,

Dashboard -> Updates

I had a similar request, and found a very small issue that David has corrected. When your go to “Dashboard – Updates” like David suggests above, you will see two check boxes. One is to NOT do the auto-backup, the other is to remember your choice.

Set it appropriately for your choice and update. The issue corrected was that in some rare cases, your choice was not remembered.

As I write this, the current version is “updraftplus.1.9.26”
