In reply to: [Meta Box] Is Metabox plugin (wp.org) and Metabox Lite the same?Thanks this was very useful.
One question:
if I get a theme that comes with Meta Box plugin (obviously the theme developers know why/how to use it) is it safe to assume I (as the website admin) can remove existing fields or add new fields by installing Meta Box Lite ?
And can these two plugins co-exist? I’m asking since it seems Meta Box Lite also comes with the base plugin.
Hey @satollo
Should I download both plugin zip files from The Newsletter website (it seems to require a free signup) and upload to the server? I’ve done manual updates, it’s not an issue.
Or is there a way to update directly? I checked under Newsletter > Addons Manager and didn’t see anything related to updating.
Thank you, this works!
I was looking in the map settings 🤦🏻♂️
As you pointed out, the settings are available in the plugin settings.

Folks, check your popups for redirects to bad sites. Check as a visitor, do not login as an admin.
And btw, this tip still applies:
https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/what-to-do-when-popup-click-redirects-to-an-unknown-website-2/
I just cleaned a popup that while opened, was automatically redirecting to the website of a bad actor.
I’ve updated the plugin today. Latest version is v1.24.1. The “basic report” setting saves correctly now!
I will test with a real backup soon.
Hey @vupdraft, hope you’re doing well!
It’s been almost a month since the last release ( v1.23.16 ). The change log is here – https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/updraftplus/#developers .
Do you have an idea of when the next release is planned for ?
I understand the dev team is going to work on this bug.
I just want to add quickly, that a previous version of UpdraftPlus (v1.23.13) sends the emails correctly. I have an entirely different website, running WordPress with UpdraftPlus v1.23.13, which I also migrated from Server A to server B, and I just ran a manual backup to test.
Hi @kmacharia, thank you for replying 🙂
I enabled “No-Conflict Mode” that you mentioned but it made no difference. I disabled it again.
The recaptcha badge is indeed showing on all pages!
I found a solution though. Google’s documentation explain how to hide the badge HERE. And according to a discussion in Stackoverflow, the badge is shown on all pages because recaptcha analyses all of them.
After adding this to the CSS in the website’s theme, the recaptcha badge immediately stopped showing, which is exactly what I was looking for:
.grecaptcha-badge { visibility: hidden !important; }Btw, Google’s terms requires that the reCAPTCHA branding is visible somewhere in the user flow. They suggest adding this:
This site is protected by reCAPTCHA and the Google <a href="https://policies.google.com/privacy">Privacy Policy</a> and <a href="https://policies.google.com/terms">Terms of Service</a> apply.From what I saw, WPForms Lite doesn’t allow adding HTML elements to the forms. That feature is reserved to the paid version. But I managed to add it via the pop-up plugin that is being used in this website to show the contact form.
Case closed.

In reply to: [UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration Plugin] Where to find my WP backup?@radiohead319 I think he meant for you to check in your Dropbox, under apps folder.

Thank you!
I’ll check this again next week. Hopefully by then we’ll have an updated release.

In reply to: [UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration Plugin] Where to find my WP backup?“Fortunately” I had Updraft installed which made regular full backups of the site. BUT I don’t know where it was saving the backups – it’s not in my G Drive or Dropbox like I expected!
Anyway I’ve found a (not totally complete) version of my website on Wayback Machine which is a bit helpful – but it looks like I’ll need a paid service to download it in a usable format (thousands of pages)
It seems that you had a large website. It surprises me that you don’t know where the backups were being saved. This is a really critical part of owning a dynamic website (when using WordPress or any CMS), specially large sites that have content being added over time.
If it was a regular portfolio website (like a company site that isn’t updated all the time) you could go back to a much older backup (probably even the archive from when you initially launched the website would work fine).

In reply to: [UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration Plugin] Where to find my WP backup?You’d think that the fact they are sending me an email each month there might be some way of tracking back to see where it it sending the backups – but maybe that’s only possible with the paid version.
Updraft doesn’t send the summary emails. They’re sent by the WordPress instance (using your webserver).

In reply to: [UpdraftPlus: WP Backup & Migration Plugin] Where to find my WP backup?I think there is a good case to be made for the summary emails to have a reference of where the backups were saved to. I think you should make a separate post to suggest this to the team. Others might chime in and it will get traction.

Do you still have FTP access to your website? If yes, FTP into the directory wp-content/updraft and look for the log file in there. The log file will mention where the backups are.
Email is still working? That’s incredible. If you’re afraid it might be disabled soon, then users should make sure the contents of their mailboxes are saved offline. If they’re using POP3 then it’s done already (as long as they refreshed recently), but if they’re using IMAP then it has to be done manually (just drag and drop all messages to a new separate PST file, if using Outlook).
There’s also tools for migrating via IMAP, in case it’s a large number of accounts and you already have a new mail server. For example have a look at Imap Sync – https://imapsync.lamiral.info/ . Microsoft and Google also have similar tools for their systems (Exchange Online and Google Workspace respectively).
