I like it enough that I bought the &#8216;Migrate WordPress&#8217; addon. However I keep running into one annoying problem.<\/p>\n<p>When I create a new backup set, the plugins, themes etc are saved as zip files, while the database is automatically saved in gz format. The route I am following to restore\/migrate involves use of the &#8216;upload backup files&#8217; option under &#8216;restore.&#8217; This uploader (the &#8216;Drop backup zips here&#8217; box + the &#8216;Select Files&#8217; button) is only able to accept zip files. I can work around the problem, but it will save me some time if this just gets fixed (and it will make it easier for my end-users to do any needful backup and restore).<\/p>\n<p>Thanks and Best,<br \/>\nAnson<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/wordpress.org\/plugins\/updraftplus\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-4159722","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/4159722","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/4159722\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4159722"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
