 * Sorry for the late answer, didn’t see, that you’ve answered.
 * The database says 1am in post_date_gmt column and 3am in post_date column.
    From
   this point of view, it seems to be okay.
 * But I’m still curious, why WordPress resets my set time :/

 * Thanks for your reply.
 * Unfortunately I’ve cehcked this. Servertime is correct, additionally, the timezone
   in WordPress itself is correct (as you can see from the attached gif in the first
   post).

 * [@josch87](https://wordpress.org/support/users/josch87/) “Any” means “matches
   any of the words” as “all” means “matches all of the words”. Either as a continious
   string or each word by separate – not sure.
    But strange, that you couldn’t find
   it with “any”, which is more “open” like “all”.
 * Nevertheless – there it is. Tadah! 😉

 * [@josch87](https://wordpress.org/support/users/josch87/) Just apply a filter 
   and filter by a part of the original string. Then you will find this:

 * Hey [@josch87](https://wordpress.org/support/users/josch87/),
 * Sorry, seems that I didn’t get the problem at first.
 * In the last “stable” release, there is a string quite close to the string, you
   want to be translated, see here: [https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/duplicator/stable/de/default/?filters%5Bstatus%5D=either&filters%5Boriginal_id%5D=590507&filters%5Btranslation_id%5D=23279470](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/duplicator/stable/de/default/?filters%5Bstatus%5D=either&filters%5Boriginal_id%5D=590507&filters%5Btranslation_id%5D=23279470)
   
   Unfortunateley, the original string in [https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/duplicator/tags/1.3.8/views/packages/main/s3.build.php#L108](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/duplicator/tags/1.3.8/views/packages/main/s3.build.php#L108)
   is not “This may take several minutes.” (as printed in the stable translation).
   Instead it’s “This may take several minutes to complete.”. So the strings are
   different and that’s why the translation doesn’t apply.
 * Same applies to the second translation (“Keep this window open during the build
   process.” in translation vs. “Keep this window open and do not close during the
   build process.” in original file).
 * Can’t figure out at the moment, when [@corylamleorg](https://wordpress.org/support/users/corylamleorg/)
   has changed the string, but there was a change.
 * I suggest to focus on the development version, where the strings are matching
   exactly. I suggest to focus on the development version in general, as you edit
   new/changed strings and already existing strings at the same time: When the strings
   are not changed between development and stable, then the dev-strings apply to
   the stable as well (and vise versa – but the dev-version has always the most 
   recent strings)

   I’m looking forward your translation suggestions and will approve them.

    Hate that
   Theme.
 * Friends, don’t use Splash from mythemeshop.com – I had to reconfigure so many

 * HTTP calls are still there 🙁

 * A solution would be to save all Data in a serialized Array in wp_postmeta. So
   you would only have One Row per Post and its Not so Important wether i.e. yourls
   is used or Not.
 * Sorry for Bad punctation etc. . My iPad seems to like to uppercase my words 😉

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for your quick reply. I’m glad to hear, that this issue will be fixed 
   in the next release.
    When you’re working on the plugin, is it possible to implement
   two additional functions?
 * 1. There are some metadata being created for posts with status “auto-draft”. 
   I don’t think, that saving metadata with autosave is with intent, isn’t it?
    
   2. When creating posts, all options are written to wp_postmeta, even when the
   appropriate services aren’t in use. For example, there are tons of entries for
   yourls or clig, but I never activated these services in WP to Twitter.
 * Both issues are blowing up wp_postmeta in an excessive way. Is it possible to
   reduce the amount of used rows in wp_postmeta generally/for each post?
    When 
   there are hundrets or thousands of posts, all of them with WP to Twitter-metadata,
   the performance will potentially decrease.

 * My second post was just for information. In case, there is an API error in the
   log, stating the exceeded quota of uploads. But your issue is another one.
    Perhaps
   you can exclude some folders: In my case I excluded all unused theme-directories,
   my log-files and -don’t laugh- my backup-folder (not the one used by BackWPup)
   as well. I think, 200 MB is enough to get a working backup.
 * But all of this doesn’t solve your problem. I hope Daniel has an idea.

 * Hi pkiula,
 * do you use anything in your plugins that uses OAuth? i.e. Twitter-plugins, other
   Dropbox-related plugins, … . Every plugin which needs an authentication but does
   not ask for your username and password and leading you to a “Do you really want
   to give access to XXX”-page uses OAuth for sure.
 * Phil

   receive the bug report?
