This is a simple script for pulling down WordPress backups from SiteGround.
- Create a backup user in siteground whose root directory is the SiteGround backup directory (e.g. /home/myaccount43/softaculous_backups).
- Create a copy of
settings.conf.sample
namedsettings.conf
and add the address, user, and password you configured in step 1. - Run the script using
python SGBackups.py
- The script will now pull down new backups every hour into
./Backups
.
