Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.
This is a minor bug fix release that fixes a PHP error when downloading backups, and adds initial Drupal 10 compatibility. At the same time the module's requirements have been changed so that it now requires Drupal 9.3.0 or newer.
As always, thanks to everyone who contributed on this release.
This is a minor bugfix release that should also help improve the module's performance while doing backups. Thanks again to everyone who collaborated on the improvements.
This includes a good many bug fixes since 7.x-3.6, thanks to everyone who worked on all of these.
More important, however, is that the NodeSquirrel backup service is no longer supported, so all NodeSquirrel backup schedules will be removed. Please note that It is still recommended to have an off-server backup.
This release includes a number of small fixes and updates, updating is suggested for all sites.
As always, a huge thank you to everyone who helped with this release. Thank you for all of your collaboration and contributions throughout 2019! Happy holidays!
This release has a wealth of new of bug fixes, along with some new features. The most notable change is a dramatic reduction in memory requirements during backups, down from possibly multiple gigabytes to ~100mb.
As always, a huge thank you to all contributors, and especially to couturier who has been doing an amazing job on supporting folks on the issue queue.
This fixes a critical issue in 3.4 that caused backups to be overwritten instead of appended with a timestamp. Our sincerest apologies for that mistake. If your backup settings have been changed since updating to 3.4 please review them to ensure that they are appending the timestamp as intended.
New features:
Issue #2702229 by DamienMcKenna: Automatically add all cache tables to the 'nodata' list, exclude simpletest tables Bug fixes:
Issue #2618516 by rocketeerbkw: Fatal error when restoring "Entire Site"
Issue #2839264 by wizonesolutions: Error: [] operator not supported for strings in backup_migrate_crud_ui_list_all()
This release fixes a lot of bugs from alpha1 including an issue where databases where exported in the wrong encoding which could lead to data loss or the need to re-encode backup files before restoring.
The first alpha release. Usable but experimental. Use with caution. There will not be an data upgrade path until at least rc1 so reinstalling might be needed when updating.
Please help move this module forward with bug reports and patches.
Initial release for 8.x-3.x work. This will be the main D8 branch of Backup and Migrate and will be based on the 7.x-3.x branch, approach, UI and features.
The development version for the 2.x branch of Backup and Migrate for Drupal 8.
The 2.x branch is soon to be retired in favor of the 3.x branch for Drupal 6 and 7 so this branch may never have a stable release but hopefully this dev snapshot will be useful for people developing on and testing Drupal 8 before 3.x is stable and ready to be ported.

Bug fix and feature release for Backup and Migrate 2.x branch for Drupal 6.
This will probably be the last feature release on the 2.x branch. New features will be added to the 3.x branch with only bug fixes going to this branch.
Fixed a critical bug where table properties were not being backed up properly.
Also:
Issue #1128620 Module needs to back table properties up as well
Whitescreen on restore
Issue #1164096 fixed readme
Defaulted compression to gzip
Added multi-source settings (ported from D6 branch)
Ported remote destination caching from D6 branch
This release fixes the upgrade path from older version of the 6.x-2.x branch. If you have had problems since updating from Drupal 6, this is the one for you.
