Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/jberkel/sms-backup-plus/issues/703

Auto backup seems not to be happening and when I hit manual backup it says "0/2300 items backed up" then the 2300, the total to be backed up, starts counting down until it says "0 items successfully backed up"
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling.

I'm having the same issue. Neither automatic or manual backups are working. No items have been backed up to my Gmail since October 27.

Device:

Google Pixel 32gb
Android 7.1.1
SMS Backup+ 1.5.11 (beta tester)

I've tried:

Uninstall/Reinstall
Disconnect app from Google account and reauthorize

Log:

@gnatbean I was able to resolve this on my own.
Go to Advanced Settings > Backup Settings > Set "Only backup items from a specific group" to "Everybody"

It seems this was set to "Starred" by default when I installed and re-installed the app to my device.
