Ning archive out of date

Has anyone had this problem with the ning archive ?

When we run the archive, the 'local' version of the json file is always a few days behind the original file.

For example, in the archive we've run today, the first record in the members file is dated 2015-03-02 but in the 'local' version the first record is dated 2015-02-26.

As the client doesn't want the site down for longer than 24 hours when we do the actually switch over, this gives us a major problem, as the site will not be up to-date !!

I've raised a support ticket with Ning but just wanted to know if anyone else had encountered this.

Cheers

Dave

Interesting!! I've just looked at the Ning archive that I use for testing and yes, the 'non local' member json file has an additional entry at the end at a date later than the last entry of the 'local' json.
Unfortunately, the import process does need to use the 'local' jsons as they reference other files in the archive.
This is something that only Ning can answer I guess.
