UpdraftPlus 1.11.28 (free) / 2.11.29 (paid versions) has been released. This is a release with fixes and small improvements, and a recommended update for everyone.

This is our first release since passing 700,000 active installed sites earlier this week, according to wordpress.org – confirming UpdraftPlus as officially the #1 most trusted backup plugin, the fastest growing backup plugin, and the #1 WordPress plugin from the UK! If you’ve not yet taken a look at our flagship product, UpdraftPlus Premium, then now’s a great time to do so!
