Download button did not respond
-
Yesterday I wanted to create a site backup before upgrading to WordPress 5.6. In Admin, I selected the most recent scheduled/completed backup. Then clicked “Database” to download that file. Nothing happened. Normally, a rectangle appears above the backups list, containing links like “Download to your computer” and “Delete from your web server.”
I tried Ctrl+F5 force refresh, and clearing the cache; no luck. I tried going into another Admin tab and returning to UpdraftPlus, but the Database button still dead. I opened the Chrome web tools F12 to see if there were any JavaScript errors; nope.
Finally decided to go ahead and upgrade to 5.6, since there are other ways to download a backup file. By the time I came back about 15m later, the buttons were working normally.
But I’d like to know why that Database button was dead? Or at least how to diagnose in the future?
