Xcloner is not allowing me to restore from my Production server which is https: to my development server which is http:. I think this would be a common setup where you do not want to buy a certificate for a dev subdomain just to copy your wordpress setup to development.

What do you recommend for all of us with a https production environment and a http development environment?

Hi Dave, yes, this is because of the mixed content https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/security/prevent-mixed-content/what-is-mixed-content

One way to overcome this is by allowing the browser to run the mixed content, as mentioned here https://pearsonnacommunity.force.com/support/s/article/How-to-display-mixed-content-with-Google-Chrome-Internet-Explorer-or-Firefox-1408394589290

Other option is to simply install a blank instance of WordPress with XCloner on your development server, move the backup file(s) there manually in your Backup Store Folder, and then run a local restore from XCloner, the result should be the same, just make sure you use a different database for restore.

Let me know if you have further questions.
