 * I have a problem with the “BackWPup Free – WordPress Backup Plugin”.
    I planned
   a weekly backup, but it doesn’t work (it happens nothing). For another website
   I did the same, there it works.
 * I also installed and activated the plugin for maintenance mode. Is that the problem?
   Does BackWPup doesn’t work with the maintenance mode plugin?
 * Thanks for your help.

 * Add the wp-cron page to the exclude settings, the cron is important fpr BackWPup,
   that is works in background. See the notes on the field “Exclude”, I think I 
   have add this as example.
