  You built your WordPress site over months (or years). One bad plugin/theme update can wipe it all out overnight. 😱 Plugin conflicts. Malware. A botched migration. A hacked server. The disasters that take down WordPress sites usually happen without warning. And here's the mistake most site owners make: they think their hosting provider's backup is enough. It's NOT. If the server fails, you lose both your site and the backup. We share the complete step-by-step guide for backing up your WordPress site the right way. Here is what you will learn: ✅ Use a Backup Plugin (Best for Most People): @DuplicatorWP is what we use across our sites. Full-site backups, disaster recovery links, and restore without having the plugin pre-installed. Free version available, Pro has scheduled backups. ✅ Use Your Hosting Provider's Backup: SiteGround (where WPBeginner is hosted) includes manual and automated daily backups on all plans. Bluehost partners with CodeGuard and Jetpack for their built-in options. ✅ Manual Backup With cPanel or FTP: Use cPanel's Backup Wizard for a full backup, or connect via FileZilla FTP to download your wp-content, themes, plugins, and wp-config.php files directly. ✅ Send Backups to Cloud Storage: Duplicator and UpdraftPlus both connect natively to Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Amazon S3. Never store backups on the same server as your website. If your host fails, both are gone. ✅ Set Up Automatic Scheduled Backups: Configure hourly, daily, weekly, or monthly backups in Duplicator based on how often you publish. eCommerce stores and busy blogs need daily. Slower-moving sites can get away with weekly. Ready to protect years of hard work with a proper WordPress backup system? Read the full ultimate step-by-step guide 👇 (Link is in the thread below)

  @FrancoisOlwage @bot I ran into a similar issue just trying to connect Dropbox, ClickUp, and Google Sheets, and all my tokens were already gone.

  Dropbox rejected billions of dollars of acquisition offers only to later realise down the line that they were building a feature not product. Which other companies show a similar pattern today?

  @mntruell You seem to have substantial connector issues with Dropbox and Calendly.

  @dhh One drive is the only thing keeping me on Mac/windows. Personal I’m down to switch to Dropbox or self hosted. Business I can’t.

  Hello @Dropbox, Just this week I have decided to switch cloud service from Google Drive to you and less than 1 week I'm having an issue. I run a wedding film business and am trying to move the same 200GB file to two separate editors for two separate kind of films and one of them is encountering a "link temporarily disabled" message. I tried to research online and made a new folder and copied over the original folders contents and cannot share that either as it says I've exceeded bandwidth limits. This is maddening as I thought I'd picked the good plan (3TB) and was all set. Please advise asap as I need these files in my editors hands stat.

  @dhh @renefaurskov Do you have a contact at dropbox that could fix the install on linux to point the dropbox to a folder other than default. Having to pause it and link to another folder after install is mentally unhealthy.

  If your camera man added him to YOUR DROPBOX and told him to download the video from your YT. Thats your team’s fault, you can’t blame Libyano for being told he can use your footage. Harrison is a good kid, but if anything, your problem is with him.

  @PhyxicxGaming Thanks. And unfortunately it's even worse than that because it's technically "shared housing;" the place was already a ******** when I got here. No pests, fortunately, and I'm pretty sure the landlord has no idea what goes on here, and doesn't care. I've only ever met the maintenance man, who handles move-ins, plus he picks up rent from the dropbox every week. I haven't seen him since the day I moved in, and he even told me as much that I'll never meet the owner. The psycho has his room on the 3rd floor, I'm one of two on the 2nd floor, and there's one person below me. The bathroom is shared, as is the kitchen, which I never use. Only one burner on the stove works anyway. On my first day, I texted about the broken toilet seat, and the Landlord asked me what happened. WTF? Third-Floor Psycho is the only other person who's walking around raging regularly. Everyone else recognizes the general "peace" of the environment. Unfortunately I have to be here at least a few more months, while I'm still paying off old bills, and re-establishing myself in a new city. It's a slow journey, but a steady one. I just happen to hit a ****** rest stop here and there.

  He put a photo of their 2 yo daughter naked with exposed genetalia in a Dropbox folder that “received more than 400,000 combined views or interactions. ... and it was publicly accessible for 23 hours before she says Minc acknowledged responsibility and took it down.”
