Anyone knows of a simple way to disable cpanel daily backup for single domain without hacking cpanel scripts that get overwritten with the next update. Weekly and monthly backups should still work as well as regular daily backups for all other domains.

There is an option to select users in configure backups within whm, it might be a newer script so make sure you are running a recent version of cPanel.

Thanks. It was all the way on the bottom so I never noticed the option.

Just in case anyone else wonders it created /etc/cpbackup-userskip.conf file, and only thing in it is account name that I wanted to skip with backup. To make sure this account still gets its weekly/monthly backups, only thing needed is cron job that will blank this file once a week and restore it day after.
