 * How does this work? It seems NOT to work on my setup.
 * You need to set a cron job on your server to schedule backups
    */10 * * * * wget
   [http://mysite.com/wp-cron.php&gt](http://mysite.com/wp-cron.php&gt); /dev/null
   2>&1 This will run wp-cron every 10 minutes. You can change*/10 to */5 to make
   it run every 5 minutes.
