[Plugin: WordPress Backup to Dropbox] PHP Limit

    Hi,

    I have tried to backup but received the following message:

    The file ‘tmp_pack_hg9nLn’ exceeds 40 percent of your PHP memory limit. The limit must be increased to back up this file.

    Despite receiving this message the plugin continued to backup the rest of my site and said 100% complete. But does this mean that this file (as mentioned above) is not backed up? I have no idea what this file does, nor what I have to do to increase my PHP memory.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    My site is https://www.worldinwords.net

    Many thanks,
    Delia

    This is normal. When the plugin finds a file it cannot upload to Dropbox due to memory restrictions it skips it and logs that warning.

    Id hazard a guess that the file is some sort of temporary cache and is not essential. So skipping it is not a bad thing.

    Cheers,

    Thanks so much for your reply, so do you think I’m safe to upload the latest version of WordPress? I’m terrified I may lose everything!

    Yep, updating WordPress is quite safe and very easy. Personally I have never run into problems.
