Today we’re announcing greater flexibility and control when configuring data downloads from the VIP Dashboard for WordPress multisite applications. We’re excited to see how this helps your workflows in local development and data analysis.
Single Network Site Download
In March this year we announced our database download feature, allowing you to download the entire database backup for any WordPress site. We’ve seen many of you using this feature for everything from offservice backups to local development and data analysis. For our customers with WordPress multisite, in addition to downloading the entire site backup, you can now configure the download to include the tables for a particular network site.
This will allow you to isolate data from a single site for easier analysis, testing, and launch processes.
You can access the new controls by clicking on the “Configure Download” button. The subsequent modal which appears, will provide you an option to choose a network site.
Date Filter
Each day’s database backups are now grouped by dates in their boxes. These boxes are part of a carousel, which allows you to scroll horizontally in either direction to quickly view and interact with backups taken on a particular date.
Selecting a target date will list all the backups from that date.
Learn more about downloading backups in our documentation.
We’d love to know what you think about this feature; please get in touch!
Customers using VaultPress
Many customers have been using VaultPress to download the data for one network site in a multisite. If this has been your use case, we encourage you to try this new Single Network Site Download instead.
We will be releasing further feature improvements in the near future to make working with your data even more convenient, particularly for customers using our VIP Local Development Environment.
