WordPress Migrator "Can not download manifest file" error
WordPress Migrator "Can not download manifest file" error
This message shows when the SiteGround Migrator plugin cannot connect and download properly the information about the migration.
Doing the following things should resolve this:
- Disable any security plugins like Wordfence on your website. These may block the SiteGround Migrator plugin from downloading the information required by it to perform the migration;
- Make sure that the permissions of the wp-content/uploads folder are set to 755.
- Remove any restrictive .htaccess rules or reset your website’s .htaccess file to a default WordPress one.
Once you do the above changes, restart the migration process.
