Error after uploading a csv file
-
I get the error “The link you followed has expired” after trying to upload a csv file in Woocommerce. This is after I try to Import products from a CSV file. Please help. Thanks

Howdy!
First thing: Can you check your System Status to see if you have the latest version of WooCommerce (3.6.4) and that your WooCommerce Database” version matches that as well?
If not, please update to version 3.6.4 to see if that helps.
If that doesn’t, please try increasing your max file size following the information here:
https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-increase-the-maximum-file-upload-size-in-wordpress/
If that still doesn’t help, could you please share a copy of your site’s System Status? You can find it via
WooCommerce > Status
. Select “Get system report” and then “Copy for support”.? Once you’ve done that, paste it here in your response.Thanks!
Hello Zach,
Thank you for hearing my call for help.
I have updated to 3.6.4 and I have increased the max file size to 512 MB (the CSV file is 42.4 MB).

Thank you
Thanks for checking that!
System Status looks good as far as I can tell.
Typically, issues like this may be caused by either a conflict with your theme or with another plugin. How we usually address this type of issue is to have you temporarily switch back to a default WordPress theme such as “Twenty Ninenteen” or “Storefront” and disable all plugins except for WooCommerce (this includes any plugins in “Must-use” or “Drop-ins” – like the
ET Support Center
plugin). More info here:https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/woocommerce-self-service-guide/#section-4
Make sure you have a full website backup before testing, or ideally test on a staging site.
If that resolves the issue, then re-enable features one-by-one until you find the one that’s causing the conflict.
I’d also recommend checking for any caching and disabling that (plugins and server-side).
Hello Zach,
It worked! I just disabled all the other plugins like you instructed.
Thank you so much. You are indeed an Automattic Happiness Engineer.
