Akeeba Backup 3.2.b2 (beta) just released

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of Akeeba Backup 3.2.b2 (Beta) bugfix release. This release fixes two bugs, one of which is considered critical.

Beta software is considered stable enough to use on live sites. However, always test your backups after updating Akeeba Backup. If you find a bug, please report it in the forum. Please remember that a bug not rerported during the beta won't be fixed in the stable release.

All users of the Professional release are urged to upgrade immediately due to a critical bug found in the 3.2.b1 release. More specifically, all files uploaded to Amazon S3 would become corrupt. As of this moment, 3.2.b1 is considered obsolete and won't be supported any longer.

As always, Akeeba Backup Core is available free of charge from our downloads section. You can find its documentation in PDF format for off-line reading in the downloads section, or you can view it on-line. All users are strongly advised to read our Quick Start Guide, available as a PDF file from our downloads section.

Attention subscribers to the Professional release. There is a change in the live update system included in Akeeba Backup after version 3.2.b1. You will need to visit your My Subscriptions page, copy the "Download ID" found towards the bottom and paste it in the Component Parameters page of Akeeba Backup. Failure to do so will mean that you will be unable to upgrade to later versions in the future.

If you want the most powerful features, such as storing your backup archives on the cloud (Amazon S3, DropBox, CloudFiles, Microsoft Windows Azure), transfer them to a different server by FTP/FTPS, exclude extensions with a single click, apply powerful filters and have an integrated restoration feature, it's time to Go Professional. Subscriptions start at 40€ and give you access to free upgrades for a whole year, while allowing you to install and use the software on an unlimited number of domains and continue to do so even after the expiration of your subscription. What are you waiting for?
