## Description

SavedPixel Remote Backup is a WordPress backup workspace for database dumps, file
archives, and plugin archives. It supports manual runs, scheduled runs, retention
limits, remote delivery, download and deletion controls, and pull-token access for
a paired monitor site that wants to collect finished backup artifacts.

### Features

 * Backup scopes for database, files, and both.
 * Manual backups from wp-admin with asynchronous job handling and progress feedback.
 * Dismissible backup progress modal that continues as a full-width inline progress
   row.
 * Scheduled database and file backups with separate frequency, time, and weekday
   controls.
 * Retention controls for how many database and file backups to keep.
 * Uploads-based local artifact storage for compressed database dumps and ZIP archives.
 * Legacy backup manifests and site-root storage remain discoverable after upgrade
   so existing history still loads.
 * Remote delivery support with SSH, FTP, Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive.
 * Pull-token API for remote catalog access and artifact downloads by a monitor 
   site.

### External services

This plugin can optionally transmit backup files to third-party remote storage services
when the site administrator explicitly configures a provider.

#### Google Drive

Backup archives may be uploaded to a Google Drive account via the Google Drive REST
API.

## Changelog

#### 1.3.3

 * Removed set_time_limit() calls entirely to avoid forcing PHP runtime limits from
   plugin code.
 * Fixed remaining dirname() traversals with numeric level parameters; all paths
   now resolve via wp_upload_dir() and get_home_path().

#### 1.3.1

 * Changed runtime storage to uploads-based helpers while preserving legacy backup
   history discovery for upgrades.
 * Fixed backup history download links so admin requests stream binary attachments
   instead of reloading the settings page.

#### 1.3.0

 * See CHANGELOG.md for full release history.
