Very handy tool – works great except a couple of archiving issues

  • This tool is a really great all round useful thing to have – I mostly use it to backup entire websites file structure for migration to another hosting.

    I have had a couple of issues with archiving however.

    1) One time WordPress was running on a Windows IIS host and when I tried to unzip the files on a Linux box the folder structure was lost because all of the files had the slash the wrong way around so instead of /wp-content/foobar.txt unzipping foobar.txt into a wp-content folder it put a file called “wp-content\foobar.txt” into the target folder. I think I google it and this was a known problem with IIS so maybe there is a workaround/fix?

    2) The other day I was trying to create archives of some folders and it kept saying “Unable to create archive” in all cases. When I tried right click, download it also said the same error. I think I ended up using the “backup” feature which worked fine except I had to manually some folders into a wp-content subfolder and then run the backup because the backup only backs up the wp-content folder and subfolders sadly ??

    Good work and maybe I’ll log these issues as a bug if I can find where to do so!
