What is the best way to remove duplicate files on web hosting's FTP server?
- by Eric Harrison
For some reason(Happened before I started working on this project)- my client's website has 2 duplicates of every single file. Effectively tripling the size of the site.
The files look much like this:
wp-comments-post.php | 3,982 bytes
wp-comments-post (john smith's conflicted copy 2012-01-12).php | 3,982 bytes
wp-comments-post (JohnSmith's conflicted copy 2012-01-14).php | 3,982 bytes
The hosting that the website is on has no access to bash or SSH.
In your opinion, what would be the easiest way to delete these duplicate files that would take the least time?
