Gallery issues

    Hello,

    thanks a lot for this plug-in. I have all my hopes on it.

    I have to migrate a WP website blog to a new one and Zippy looked like the best (and in some way my only) option to do it automatically.

    As far as I have around 1000 entries in the old website, I am experiencing many issues to import them from the website due to the server timeout but I understand that is something you cannot solve at this moment.

    Nevertheless, I have found something that worries me much more. When importing posts with galleries, the new WP imports the images properly but the galleries appear as empty. I have tons of galleries in my website and I would like to know if there is anything I can do to solve this issue. All my posts have been created with the Classic Editor and the galleries are the default WP’s ones.

    This is a huge challenge for me with such a huge amount of posts but if you can help me to make it easier and better, I will sincerely appreciate.

    Thanks

    Max
    PS: as a suggestion, it would be great if while importing, there would be an option to make the first image in the post the featured image. My blog is older than the feature image option in WordPress and many posts have no that image so the modern templates den’t show any image next to the titles.

    Hello Max,

    you can try to add this code to your functions.php

    add_filter('zippy-unzip-attachments', static function ($attachments) {

    if (!empty($attachments)) {
        $attachments[key($attachments)]->isFeaturedImage = true;
    }

    return $attachments;
});

    Not sure what are you answering about. I am not an expert in css but I feel your answer refers only to the very last part of my message (in the ps).

    The gallery issue is more critical for me.

    Thanks again

    Max
