Hi Chigolo!
Thanks for your questions!
First, WP Staging plugin will duplicate all your database tables with another table prefix like “wpstg0_”, so let’s say your database has the live site’s database tables starting with “wp_”, you will end up having two sets of database tables in your database (wp_ and wpstg0_), that’s totally fine and you don’t have to worry about that.
Yes, having a staging site with a separate database is a Pro feature.
The backup folders can be excluded during the cloning process as in this screenshot:

Let me know if you have any further question,
Thanks.
Hi,
allright thx for the info.
Backup:
Since the question was misunderstood, I meant whether I can exclude the database entries and the folder from BackWpup so that the staging page is not saved.
To the database:
Will this be completely cleaned again during the deinstallation or will the entries from WP Staging remain and have to be deleted manually?
The free version would be sufficient for me, as I only want to use it to test new plugins and CSS changes, etc.
Thx in advance.
Sure, you can exclude the staging site’s files or database tables from the backup plugin, however, this is something to check with the backup plugin.
Yes, there is a button in the plugin from where you can delete the staging site (this will delete both files, and database tables):
