 * Hi,
 * I see that it’s possible to exclude files or folders from the backup. But is 
   it possible to exclude tables? The website I’m working on is installed on a share
   database, reason of the question.
 * Otherwise, great, light plugin!!
 * Thank you for your answers.

 * Hi Oliver,
 * There isn’t currently away to exclude database tables, however the unless the
   tables are absolutely massive, it shouldn’t be an issue backing them up.
 * I’ll certainly note your feature request down for the future.
 * Your also more than welcome to fork the plugin on github and add the feature 
   yourself, if you do send me a pull request and if possible I’ll release your 
   code in a future version.
