WPFolks is built around the people who build WordPress. WordCamps are where those people actually meet, learn from each other, and often give their first talk. And there is something right about it happening…

Heads up for UpdraftPlus users: TeamUpdraft has confirmed unauthorized access to their systems that may have exposed UpdraftCentral connection keys, allowing an attacker to drop a backdoor on sites via Updraft Central. If you use Updraft, check for any unknown plugin that was installed (e.g. "Image Core"), delete your UpdraftCentral connection keys, change your passwords, and update the extension.

For a manual restore check, keep two dates separate: when the backup ran and when you actually checked a restore. The second is the one that can disappear into 'I did that recently.'
Our NowAgo app can keep an elapsed-time tracker for that check, with previous dates kept when you reset it: https://nowago.app/iod
It is a personal check log, not a WordPress backup monitor.

A note from the folk who built this

I built WPFolks because we deserved better.

We power 40% of the web and we had no central home. We were scattered across Slacks, forums, and platforms built for someone else. So I built one for us.

Free forever. No paid tiers. No algorithm. No noise. Just real folks doing real work, finding each other.

If you build something good, post it. If something breaks, tell me on the feed. That is the whole project.
