Documentation doesn't mention server reconfiguration is needed when restoring from backup
From documentation:
- Click on the Restore button next to your backup; a dialogue box asking for confirmation will appear. Click the Restore backup button to begin the restore process.
- Your site is now ready to use!
There is a catch - even though the button "Sync your website" indicates that you can now sync the website without any troubles, the operation will never finish if the user hasn't manually made sure that the authorization token is still there when it's not there (for example if they've switched to a new computer). I have come across this issue using Github Pages, so I don't know what it's like with other servers.
It is kind of obvious that the token needs to be added there again once you think about it, but it is also pretty easy to overlook that so I think the documentation should mention that. Or maybe the connection should be tested after restoring and in case of the missing authorization token the "Sync your website" button shouldn't be active.
Thank you for a great tool though!
