    Hi

    Thank you for your pluggin.
    I have an issue when importing from my live version (https://www.us-militaria.com – joomla 3.7.X) to my dev version (https://dev.us-militaria.com – WP 4.8 + latest update of your plugin). I used K2 and Jcomment and migrated all the articles into joomla ones.

    When I try to import, il will import a few articles and media during 5-10 seconds, and then it will stop. Then, I stop it manually and re-launch it. It will then go back to where it stopped but only import a few articles and media, until I stop it and do it again.

    The issue :
    It would not be an issue if this happened : after importing 49 articles + 372 medias, it stopped importing at all (it discovered 297 articles + …).

    My troubleshoot :
    I have let it run for 2+ hours but nothing happened
    I have uninstalled + reinstalled the complete WordPress site but same thing happened (with new Mysql DB)

    What am I missing ?

    Thank you

    I have skipped the medias and relaunched the update.
    I guess I now have to bring all the media back manuellay, but you saved me a huge amount of time !
    Thanks

    What are your media settings?
    Be sure to leave UNCHECKED:
    – Import external media
    – Force media import

    And please use our recommended settings during the migration.
    The recommended php.ini settings are:

    max_execution_time=3600
    max_input_time=3600
    memory_limit=1G
    post_max_size=1G
    upload_max_filesize=2G

    also please add:
    define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘1024M’);
    in your wp-config.php file to increase the memory allowed by WordPress.
    See here for more information: https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/increase-memory-limit/

    If you are on a shared host, you can’t modify the php.ini file. Another solution is to install WordPress on your local computer and run the import in local. In this case, you won’t have the limitations of the shared host. Here is the procedure: https://www.fredericgilles.net/support/kb/faq.php?id=30

    In any case, if you click again on the import button, it will resume the import where it left off.
