Just a quick note…
Our Google Drive setup guide used to have a note saying that Google did not allow WordPress installs hosted on ‘localhost’ (i.e. a development machine not reachable from the public Internet) to access Google Drive.
This restriction was arbitrary, and we never knew why they had it. It appears that they no longer do. We didn’t spot notice of this anywhere, but Google no longer sends back an error if you try – it works.
You don’t need to update UpdraftPlus to be able to do this – the restriction was always at Google’s end. You can just use it!
