## Description

WPvivid Database Snapshots allows you to quickly create snapshots of all tables 
in your WordPress database.

#### Why Use Database Snapshots?

Making a database snapshot is much faster than making a database backup. If you 
need a quicker rollback solution for safely testing WordPress database-related changes,
use a snapshot.

A snapshot contains database only. If you need to back up the full site or files,
you can use our free [WPvivid Backup Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpvivid-backuprestore/).

## FAQ

### What is the main difference between a database snapshot and a database backup?

Making a snapshot is to create a quick copy of all tables of the current website
in the database, while making a database backup is to use SQL statements to export
the database to an individual .sql file.
 Therefore, a snapshot usually works as
a quicker solution for short-term situations, for example, a quick rollback after
doing database-related testings. While a backup is usually used for long-term data
protection.

### What does WPvivid Database Snapshots do?

WPvivid Database Snapshots enables you to create snapshots of your WordPress database
and restore the database from a snapshot.

### Where are the snapshots stored?

Snapshots are stored in the same database for which the snapshots were made. Each
snapshot has a unique prefix for it’s tables.

### Is it possible to download snapshots?

We don’t offer a direct download option for snapshots. However, you can download
snapshots by making a backup of the snapshots tables using WPvivid Backup Pro, then
downloading the backup of the snapshots.

### Why does WPvivid Database Snapshots have a limit on snapshots retention

That is because snapshots take up database space, too many snapshots may slow down
the site, especially on shared web hosting.

### Does WPvivid Database Snapshots have a limit on the database size?

No, WPvivid Database Snapshots does not have a limit on the database size and theoretically
works for websites of any sizes.

### Do you provide support for the free version? Where?

Yes, absolutely. Whenever you need it, help can be found from the support forum 
on WordPress.org for WPvivid Database Snapshots plugin.

It works great. I simply make a backup of the database before each change. One click.
Recovery also works with one click. A wonderful tool for everyone. I don’t make 
changes without it.
