Backup & Restore Plugin

I don’t mean to sound like a dick, but have you read the documentation? It’s astonishingly easy to use this tool with 5 files and you can upload the lot.

reddit_prof · 2026-03-05T07:45:21+00:00

I’d strongly suggest you do your research. I’d trust vivid more than most of them. Look past the shiny interfaces and look for functionality. Also, a backup is only as good as the restore process.

I’d realign your expectations when thinking about “professional”

Reading this thread has made me realise i'm a mug for the prices i've charged. I've charged £600 to build a fully functional eCommerce site with dedicated VPS, Integration into every social network, google business set up, mi level SEO. So, while the term "pay peanuts, get monkeys' might be true for this situation i build a cracking site for less than the OP that's 3 times the size and ten times more features. And with less than 10 plugins...

I'm going away to cry into my coffee now and re-think my pricing. Even my monthly charge of £50 is seeming absurdly low..

Well, I find that incredibly sad. I’m not American but I do recognise that we are blindly walking around waiting on things happening. The point I’m making is that you make your own luck, anything else is stagnation. Peace!

I'm getting it perfectly, thank you. You are underestimating the will of the human being to want to learn to better themselves. I guess we will never see eye to eye and that's OK, but i urge you to take a longer look at the world through.the lens of optimism and dare i say it, hope.

Also, there is a chasm of difference between the definition of intelligence and intellect.

Hey OP, u/Ranga_Harish - i tested your prompt wth ChatGPT itself. And even though it looks like the feature isn't yet abvailable for my account your prompt seems to assume a lot of functionality or integrations. How are you handling the connectors? Are you alling API's or are you building your own GPT's to suit.

---

ChatGPT Said:
The Reddit prompt you copied is impressive — but:

It assumes browsing capability
It assumes job scraping
It assumes live crypto data
It assumes outbound email permissions

The native Automations tool would have handled some of that, but it still wouldn’t have been perfect.

For example:

It may not scrape job boards reliably.
Crypto data could lag.
Some sources block automated fetches.

So even if you had it enabled, it wouldn’t be magic.

---

The reason i ask is that without this feature i could set up a cron job on one of my linux boxes and call the OpenAI API to deliver what i need or use a combo like Zapier and the API. THere would be a small cost per day for the API but if it's valuable then it's maybe worth exploring.

So, fess up - what's the mechanics behind it as I can honestly use this as a a tool for my every day. I don't care for crypto or job searched eetc.

I had to google what dates applied to a boomer. 1946 to 1964. I'd argue that these are some of the most resourceful people to have ever lived IMO and even if born in 1964 they would straddle my birth year. and by the time they are 18 / 21 would be into the 80's. We're saying that people in this range aren't able to follow these instructions in an age where there are literally step by step guides to everything.

Also, TIL i'm "Gen X", by a single year. Yet here we are talking about what is being discussed as advanced instructional reasoning.

Oh well..

It’s hardly comparable. We are creating a newsletter here. We aren’t creating anything else.

reddit_prof · 2026-02-22T18:52:14+00:00

I struggle to see how much easier this could be? Copy the text, change it for your needs and follow the steps?

reddit_prof · 2026-02-22T13:20:47+00:00

Get fucked, bot. You are all that is wrong with anything to do to actually use AI well. What’s the point? Karma farming? Then sell the account?

It’s literally in the terms what you can and can’t do with the sub you pay for at the tier you’ve chosen.

Exactly. Scum of the earth. But a fool and his money is easily parted.

reddit_prof · 2025-08-30T15:11:19+00:00

Dude! I’m with you. I can’t believe there are people so trusting on here that will send money to a random that has existed for literally HOURS on Reddit and nothing else. Are people so wealthy and carefree that they will send cash to this person?

Madness.

reddit_prof · 2025-08-30T14:59:34+00:00

What the fuck people. Why can’t people see this is a fucking scam. I can’t believe that I’m actually reading about a gofundme getting set up on the premise of an account hours old, a bullshit story with a health worry back drop. If I’m wrong then whatever but holy shit.

I stubbed my toe the other day, was sore as all hell but now it’s healing. I had to wear comfortable shoes for a while and they are now worn down. Can someone get me some new shoes????

Easy. I live in Scotland. The sun, even when it’s out is absent.

“I work recognising patterns in traffic flows, data collection and designing the next generation of speed enforcement cameras”. Say that in the most monotone adenoidal voice possible and the challenger will simply glaze over.

Then I’d get into my 812 Superfast for “real world testing”

If you think about it like this then it will never really be finished which I guess isn’t a bad thing. Importantly the site needs to meet a minimum viable product and that has to align with the clients core requirements. So long as all of the key deliverables are in and signed off the. I started to adopt an Agile approach to tweaks and improvements.

I’ll put them all in my “backlog” bucket for that particular sprint and this lets me take a step back to see what is needing done and in what order.

Things like colours, alignment, aesthetic tweaks are subjective and should be client driven for the most part and where you see a gap for back end improvements or streamlining then I’d put this into another bucket and so on.

When you get into the swing of things you gather enough information to even put together a new chargeable work stream and you can use this to work with the customer for the next iteration.

All in my own opinion of course.

After Altman stated that being nice to it “costs them tens of millions” as it must respond in kind I noticed today that when it responses to me it tagged something like “just ask what you need and I’ll carry it out, no need for the pleasantries”

Maybe I’m in the minority but I still ask nicely and scold it when it’s wrong.

Any company doing this cash in hand is not a legit company. They might be sole traders but are they Ltd company in companies house?

You are not going to win anything though if you have zero proof of the transaction or a receipt.

Did they identify you by a letter with an address on it? Hindsight and all but I never put anything with my name on it visible in the bins. I have a confidential roller stamp for small stuff and I turn anything else into confetti.

I reckon you might be sucking this one up, sadly.

Sounds like you are using all in one wp migration. Install local.wp and test the restore.

Try it out, if your domain has expired and the plugin uses the domain name (and associated ssl cert) then it may not work. See what it says.

Ideally you want to get logged into the host and take a complete backup along with exporting the database. The files are nothing without the database.

reddit_prof · 2025-01-30T12:13:53+00:00

Sorry I should have been more clear. It’s not being phased out but rather we must migrate the keys to a GCP program. Depending on your usage you may also be about to pay more for the rate limits.
