- Description
In the "Wiki" Control panel, there's a "Dump files" feature. It's at the very end of the page, if tabs view has been turned off. This feature doesn't work at all. When you click "Create dump file", after a short delay, you get an empty page.
In Tiki 25, it worked, with restrictions. It seemed to create a corrupt tar file, but in retrospective I think, the file probably just had an outdated file format and could possibly still be used, with the right command line argument for "tar".
In dev.tiki.org and on the tikiwiki-devel list, I saw that this "Dump files" feature should have been removed. I think so, too, so I'm suggesting to actually do so.
I'll write a feature request for a replacement for the "Dump files" feature.
