(Quote) From what I could tell, and use - yup. The only upside compared to the free version is being able to use Backblaze B2 cloud storage as if it were FTP storage. Haven't tried it with Amazon, or Azure storages - don't use them.
-
(Quote) From what I could notice (I've been using the free version for years) - the pro lets you use S3, Backblaze B2 etc. as if they were "normal" FTP. Hadn't noticed much else. Didn't really care about much else though, either. :) Dropbo…

(Quote) Doesn't seem to be available for Linux - Windows and Max only. :(

(Quote) Does it work as an FTP with Backblaze B2?

UK, or US east coast.

(Quote) For me, as a user, cPanel is still better. Though - JetBackup working smoothly was one of the main reasons for sticking with cPanel. :) Even with their current cPanel prices, they are still among the cheapest, when compared with providers w…

WP plugins are both less reliable, and more resource-demanding, compared to good server-level backup solutions. I understand having more than one backup job per day, in a shared hosting environment, can put a big load on the server. Having said th…
-
(Quote) Talking about JetBackup off-site backups. Performance and uptime are very good. Price hikes (two over the last two years) - understandable. JetBackup job limit - understandable. The way it's been executed (notification afterwards, and de…
-
Todays news (just got an email): No more than one JetBackup job per reseller account. The problem? As I logged in, after having received the email, two out of three of my backup jobs (daily, weekly, and monthly) have been deleted by the provider. N…

1. Back to top button is partially under the dark-mode button. 2. Cover images don't look very good. 3. After doing a search, if I don't click on any of the results, there's no clear "back to forum start / Home" button/link. Same goes fo…

I prefer manual compression. Why? Some images (screenshots of command prompt, menus etc.) get smaller files when saved as a .png, with 256 colours, or even fewer (this forum screenshot could look perfectly fine with only 10, or 20 colours .png). Wh…

My experiment, with a real, live website: https://io.bikegremlin.com/19312/server-location-speed-impact/
-
Another option is making a topic called "garbage bin" visible to members only, so problematic posts can be just moved there. If that's faster and simpler than editing posts.

I use pigeons. Just sayin'...
-
(Quote) Yes and no. The jury is still out - waiting for more test results by the start of June this year. So far - based on the currently available results (2 x 31 days of metrics) I see no measurable detriments of hosting my website in the UK. Whi…

Can I move my websites to a UK based hosting server, even those with a majority of US-based visitors? Do I have to keep paying for the USA-based hosting as well? I did an experiment with my cycling website - turns out it's not a problem. At least wh…

(Quote) Never keeping them both on the same continent. :)
-
Inception has a better IMDb rating! (Image) On a more serious note: never used any of those services, but never heard anything but praises for both of those providers.
-
(Quote) I agree - JetBackup (and cPanel) are a lot more convenient. I prefer them. It could even be argued that you pay more for the more expensive backup options than you save on the license costs (as a customer at least).
-
(Quote) DA has in-built support for storage, but not the cheap options like Amazon, or BackBlaze. Hetzner Box works perfectly fine, and it's not outrageously expensive, but does cost more. DirectAdmin automated remote backup configuration

I'm waiting for episode VI - Return of the Discounts!
-
They have protected it too well. :) (Image) Not worth the bother, IMO.
-
(Quote) I've heard nothing but praises for Blocksy. If I had more time - i'd give it a run, see if it can be better optimized. :) And I completely understand the sentiment - for most webshops I go with OceanWP, even though GeneratePress is faster …

Same site, same page, same server: Blocksy GTmetrix GeneratePress GTmetrix OceanWP GTmetrix
-
What's the budget? What layout and functionality is required? I wrote a general guide on good relatively decent theme">how to pick a good relatively decent theme. My personal favourites are GeneratePress and OceanWP. Elementor is OK if used…

For anyone with a similar dilemma - my Windscribe VPN experience. TL/DR - it's good, I'm happy, would recommend it. :)
-
(Quote) <3 MADE IN SERBIA! :)
-
If they don't fix it in a few days, it might be reasonable to move the customers to another server.
-
(Quote) Does every contributor easily come to a static IP? That's the first problem I see. It could be solved, by providing them with a temporary VPN with a static IP login details (changing those after the contribution is finished?). It would work,…
-
(Quote) That's capitalism. Can't really blame them. Not my cup of tea in terms of marketing, or any kind of business (recommending what you know is not the optimal choice for the other party), but I'll never run a big company and become rich! :)
-
(Quote) What about the protection of publicly available back-end? :) Sure - some security through obscurity is possible, but if you notify 10 different contributors about the login location... You still need very good security (or add a lot more has…
-
(Quote) Never used the service - it's on my to-do list. One of the best WP developers I know, and a good man, is now working for Cloudways. I'd love having people like that on a tech-support call (especially if paying premium prices). Had an intere…

Once a "jinx-prone" colleague was on his way to fix our electrics, I phoned a friend at the fire department, who also knows the guy: "This is probably the first time you got a 'schedule' call! See, Lucky is on his way to fix our elect…

Was anyone hurt? Yes, I see they said "Everyone is safe," but that's not the same.
-
(Quote) If memory serves me, there was a fire on a building close-by. They talked about adding (or already having added) some external fire-protection plates to prevent such incidents from putting them in danger. Can't find the article neither. :(
-
(Quote) I highly value different opinions and ideas - especially when they come from experienced experts. So not disagreeing here, just... expanding? :) Correct me where I'm wrong: I suppose that website setup and maintenance is done by someone re…
