== Upgrade Notice ==

= 2.0.0 =
With version 2.0 you can now backup your blog's files!
WARNING: With version 2.0 you will no longer be able to send a backup to both email and the online vault at the same time in a scheduled backup. If you currently have both set in your schedule, the email option will be removed upon upgrade.

The plugin will do its best to allocate the nearest schedule to the one you currently have. However, we recommend you check the schedule settings afterwards to ensure the one selected is the best for your requirements.

Fixes an issue where backups would always fail if the server did not support encryption.
