Hi Boone,

Some context: JITP is an academic journal that the library seeks to have archived through JSTOR's Portico service -- http://www.portico.org/digital-preservation/

On a regular basis, that means that we need to send them files and texts for backup. The issue is exactly what we dealt with here:

http://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/2599

It seems to me that we can:

1. Just submit a request every time we need a download of files

2. Set up a chron job to automate this on a regular basis.

Can you please let Stephen and me know what would be most advisable? If you have questions about the process involved, please let us know. thank you for your work.

I've created a tool that adds a submenu to Dashboard > Media, called Download All. On this new panel, there is a button that can be clicked at any time to generate a zip file of all files uploaded to the specific site. Note that the panel is available only to Administrators on the site. https://github.com/cuny-academic-commons/cac/commit/82656c3d406944200a07a10b63a67ee9ad9fed39

The tool will be available after our next release on the 11th. I will update this ticket at that time.
