When I try to upload a tar.gz file for my website (to be extracted using PHP) it uploads successfully, and then nothing appears.
I want to upload wordpress files compressed in a tar.gz (this better to keep server permissions) or zip file in order to extract them, but I can’t upload them, tried also in filezilla and failed.
How can I upload the entire site without uploading file by file (really slow)?
Its probably the case that your file is over the file size limit:
I think in reality the limit is just under 10mb. due to rounding.
The best way to upload a large zip file is to unzip it on your computer, and then use a tool like filezilla to upload. But if you feel you have to upload it as a zip file, the file manager has “upload and unzip”
This is what I did when I uploaded the first version of my website, but it took years because wordpress has lots of small files and filezilla uploads them one by one.
You can set filezilla to do multiple uploads at the same time. Its in the settings. But honestly, thats probably going to be as fast (if not faster) than the upload & unzip in the file manager (mentioned above).
