Preferences > Export / Import bug?
« on: June 01, 2016, 05:33:34 AM »
Backed up all my settings using Preferences > Export

When later trying to import a specific FTP setting (Uploader template:FTP:Connection:ftp.servername.com) nothing happens.

(The FTP setting was accidentally deleted overwritten and I wanted to restore from my previous export)

OS: El Capitan 10.11.5
PM: 5.0 build 17338

Am I missing something?

Have you tried re-importing your exported FTP connection setting?

Yes. No matter what I do I'm unable to import server settings. Doesn't matter if I overwrite or delete the server I'm trying to restore from my backup.

Not sure if it's the export or import that's failing, but it sure seems like a bug.

It certainly could be a bug.  Can you get me your PMX file so I can investigate?  Contact me privately by clicking on my name to the left of this message.  I'll give you a couple of options for giving it to me.

Thanks,
