Great plugin--thanks very much...Please advise what permissions back up .tar files need to be to be deleted manually from xcloner. currently.644, also is there an option to only  store say 3 backups and when the 4th is generated the oldest gets deleted automatically. I see i can have backups deleted after x days but since i might not be doing many backups i would rather set a limit than a time so if i have not done a backup in 3 weeks because no changes were made there will be something there forever. I am not as lazy as i sound Wink Thanks

644 permissions will work.

 

XCloner can only delete backups after a time limit expiration if that's enabled, otherwise you would need to adjust the script to fit your needs.

Actually, i was looking at the requirements and it suggests

max_execution_time set to a higher value. I am on lightspeed server and

in order to get wordfence security to work on LSpeed I had to have the

METime set to -1..a lot of people have the wordfence not completing scan

problem. Wordfence is lookinginto it. I hope I can use both.. the fix was

http://wordpress.org.....st-5610174

It is a combination of 3 things.

1) Modify the .htaccess of that specific site and make it have this rule – https://billing.stab.....meout.html

2) Go to your cPanel -> Software -> PHP Settings -> Switch to

PHP settings -> change both execution times to -1 , then hit save.

3) Remove unused themes to avoid timeouts.

 

unless -1 is like no timout
