As one of the top plugins that I install one each one of my client WordPress sites and my own sites, there is a little added work involved to configure the WP-DB Manager plugin so that the little pesky error message that shows up at the top of your dashboard window disappears . And I’m referring to the one below:

Your backup folder MIGHT be visible to the public

To correct this issue, move the .htaccess file from wp-content/plugins/wp-dbmanager to /home/content/x/x/x/xxxxxxx/html/wordpresstowebsite/teleclasses/wp-content/backup-db

Well, it’s not as easy as the message reads!

What IS located in the wp-dbmanager sub-folder is an htaccess.txt file, but that’s not the correct file to move. Yes, go ahead and remove the htaccess.text file from the wp-dbmanager file. It’s okay to do that. Now the correct .htaccess file you need to copy and paste over to the backup-db sub-folder is the same .htaccess file you will find in the root directory of your website (or in your host server account). Look for the folder that reads, “wp-content”, and you will find the .htaccess file. Copy that file over to your hard drive using an FTP client like SmartFTP or a web-based client called net2ftp. Net2ftp is a free service whereas SmartFTP is not.

Then upload the .htaccess file from your hard drive over to the /backup-db sub-folder. Log into your WordPress site dashboard if you haven’t already, and check to see if the above error message has disappeared. If it did not, then I would refer to the documentation for this particular plugin, which you can find here:
