I backed up my .com blog using Backup. Then I installed Bludit on another server using a .MX domain so I have a mirror image of the .com. I uploaded my .com backup to the .MX server and it worked fine, but when I tried to back it up I got an error message. I looked through all the likely code and changed any reference to .com to .mx to see if the backup would begin working. It didn't, so I deactivated Backup on the .MX instance and also deleted it from the server. I couldn't find a zip file for Backup on the official plugins page but I found version 1.5 (I think that's right) here in the support forum. I uploaded it to my .MX server, unpacked it in the plugins folder, and then went back to my Bludit admin plugins section. I was able to activate the plugin, but when I go to settings, nothing is there, so the plugin is unusable. Is there a newer version? How can I restore backup functions on my .MX domain? Note that on the .com site, Backup works perfectly.

The backup plugin is part of Bludit.

Deinstall the plugin, and copy the directory /backup in the directory bludit-3-13-1\bl-plugins\ in the directory /bl-plugins/backup on the server.

For migration you can use the plugin Domain Migrator:
