How to disable generation of multiple image sizes?

Hi,

which version of the plugin are you using?

The latest version of this plugin (v 1.1.0) imports the data with multiple AJAX calls, so you should not get the server timeout errors… Please try the import with the latest version of this plugin and let me know if you still get the 500 error…

If you still want to disable generation of multiple image sizes during the import process, please use this filter:

add_filter( 'pt-ocdi/regenerate_thumbnails_in_content_import', '__return_false' );

That will disable the regeneration of other smaller images and the import will finish much faster. However please try the latest version of this plugin on a fresh WP install, because the server timeout issues should not occur anymore and this test would really help me out…

Take care!

Thank you for quick response. I was actually using the latest version – that’s the reason I asked how to disable the option. I remember that at the end of log I got info about (max_execution_time = 300) and after import actions were not processed.

Was this related to max_execution_time or some other things?

Thanks!

Hi,

That’s just the log output of the “max_execution_time” PHP setting, for debugging reasons, so that’s not an error…

When you import the demo with this plugin, do you get any errors during the import or at the end of the import? Or does the import finish with “That’s it, all done! The demo import has finished …” (without errors).

Could you maybe send me the import file, so I can test it out?

Take care!

Hi,

Yes, there was error at the end (after about 5 minutes of importing) and link to error log.

The demo import has finished, but there were some import errors.
More details about the errors can be found in this log file

In the log file there were lot of errors related to images, but URLs for images in dummy.xml were not correct, so the reason with errors for images is not related to plugin.

There were also lot of warnings like this:

[WARNING] Could not find the author for “bbPress Forum Closed Topic” (post #5230)

I was using custom xml file with different data included: https://bbpress.trac.www.ads-software.com/attachment/ticket/2516/bbpress-unit-test-data.xml and default dummy data from WooCommerce https://github.com/woothemes/woocommerce/blob/master/dummy-data/dummy-data.xml mixed with regular posts and pages.

I wonder if there are lot of errors with images then can it slow down importing a lot and be the reason of problem with full import and skipping after import action?

I will correct the URLs for images and try to replicate the problem on different hosts and if it will be the same without success then I could send you the full export for testing if necessary.

Thanks!

Hi,

these warnings can be ignored:

[WARNING] Could not find the author for “bbPress Forum Closed Topic” (post #5230)

I would disable them, but they are outputted by the content importer we are using and there is no easy way to disable them. These warnings are because we don’t import authors (no need for that) and then the author can not be found… Anyway, just ignore these warnings.

If there is an error in the content import, the widgets and after import action will not execute and the errors should also be outputted above the finished message and in the error log file.

If the images are not correct/missing (404 URL errors), then the image import would be skipped and it should not delay the import.

If you could, please send me the exact import file that you were using, so I can test it out. Also you can send me the log files from your imports located in (wp-content/uploads/2016/05/)

Take care!
