Hi all.  Great plugin btw, when creating a back up one of the fields says "Backup Comments".  OK, let's say you entered some info in there as a reference for the back up, where do you see the backup comments field content when trying to restore?

The commennts are being stored inside the administrator/backups/.comments file, inside the backup archive!

Thanks, for some reason my administrator/backups/ frolder desn't seem to have a .comments file.

 

I can see other .files (ie: .htaccess) so I don't think that's the issue is just that fille does not seem to be there.

The file only gets created when comments field is filled in, to verify, the directory containing that file is inside the created Backup Archive, and not on the server directly!

It will probably be helpful to have some other file created that can be seen without unarchiving it that way you can add notes about the back up in case you are unsure about what is it in there.
