  • Safeguard every change in real time in the ultra-secure Jetpack Cloud
  • Restore your site even when your host is down
  • Backups built specifically for WordPress and WooCommerce sites

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions? We've got you covered.

Answers about restores, migrations, storage, and getting help with VaultPress Backup.

How do I restore my site with VaultPress Backup?
It’s easy to restore your site in just a few clicks. Watch this quick video, or follow the complete restore guide.
Why do I need backups?
Doesn't my host already have backups?
Host backups may run only once daily, stay on the same infrastructure as your site, and require technical help to restore. VaultPress Backup saves changes off-site in real time and gives you one-click restores, even when your host is unavailable.
Don't see your WordPress backup in the activity log?
Update your site credentials under Manage → Settings → Jetpack. If Jetpack can’t contact the site after two attempts, you’ll receive an email. See the site credentials guide for help.
Can I use VaultPress Backup to migrate my website to a different host?
Yes. VaultPress Backup can migrate your site to a new WordPress installation on any server. The Backup support guide explains the process.
Can VaultPress Backup be used to migrate to a different address?
Yes. Enter the server credentials for the new address so Jetpack can clone the site from the current host. Read the SSH, SFTP, and FTP credentials guide if you need help locating them.
Does VaultPress Backup take care of path changes during a migration?
Yes. Enter the destination WordPress path—the location where the site’s files are stored relative to the SSH, SFTP, or FTP user’s access. See Backup support for details.
Can I clone my website with VaultPress Backup?
Yes. Copy your site to another server or create a testing and development copy on the current server. Follow the cloning guide.
Can I use Jetpack to back up my database?
Yes. VaultPress Backup saves WordPress database tables that begin with the WordPress table prefix and have a unique or primary key. Learn more in the Backup guide.
Can I use Jetpack to back up my files?
Yes. VaultPress Backup saves files in the plugins, mu-plugins, themes, and uploads directories. Learn more in the Backup guide.
Can I exclude directories from my backup?
Yes. VaultPress Backup excludes a directory containing a file named .donotbackup, and also excludes the contents of a directory named donotbackup. See the Backup guide before configuring exclusions.
Can VaultPress Backup save files to Google Drive or Dropbox?
VaultPress Backup doesn’t save directly to Google Drive or Dropbox. Your backup is stored redundantly on Jetpack servers in multiple locations around the globe. You can also download a copy and upload it to another service.
Can I download my backups?
Yes. Open the activity log, filter to the restore point you want, open the three-dot menu, and choose Download backup.
Does VaultPress Backup support WordPress multisite?
No. VaultPress Backup does not currently support WordPress multisite.
Does VaultPress Backup support split site or split home URLs?
No. VaultPress Backup does not currently support split site or split home URLs.
Is there a backup size limit?
There is no individual backup size limit. If a backup would take you over the storage included with your plan, we’ll warn you before changing your service.
Need help?
Start with the Backup guide, learn how to use the activity log, or review Jetpack’s scope of support.
