A dashboard widget that integrates with popular backup plugins (UpdraftPlus, BlogVault, Solid Backups, WP Time Capsule) and shows a clear “last backup: X ago” status with color coding.
What it does:
– Detects which backup plugin is installed and active
– Reads the last backup timestamp from the backup plugin’s data
– Displays a colored status badge: green (recent), yellow (warning), red (stale)
– Shows estimated next scheduled backup time
– Works across multiple backup plugins via an extensible adapter pattern
Why this is useful: Most site owners don’t know when their last backup ran until they need to restore. A simple visual indicator on the dashboard prevents that pain.
