Description

Hallo,

Hi @teevee98, welcome to Trac!

Can you be more specific about the function you're referring to? I can upload ZIP files on a clean WordPress install.

I can assume that the issue is that the current site cannot write into the /wp-content folder and requires FS_METHOD to be defined as direct. @teevee98 am I right?

If so, it's a server settings issue and WordPress is just doing its best to deal with the existing restrictions.
