In version 1.0.0 of this product, the plugin was installed without the version number in the path. But now, it is included, causing all of my cron jobs for back to need to be updated each time I upgrade your version. Can this be changed back in future versions?

/wp-content/plugins/akeebabackupwp/app/cli/backup.php
vs.
/wp-content/plugins/akeebabackupWP-1.03.001/app/cli/backup.php

Hello Richard,

how did you perform the upgrade?
Did you manually update the plugin (local extract + upload on the site)?
If you want to change the folder name, you should export all the backup profiles, deactivate the plugin, delete the folder, upload Akeeba Backup in the correct folder, reactivate it and then import the profiles.

I had deleted the older version and then installed version 1.0.3. I will do the manual reinstall to put it back into the folder without the version number.

But I was suprised that it did install with the version rather than /akeebabackupwp.

Thanks for the info.
