    Not only does this quit working every 20 products, it put several instances of the same things in my menus. To get all of my 2200 products imported will be an all day process. Not what I was hoping for with the “1-click” import.

    I’m thinking maybe I should wipe my entire wordpress install and start over. I don’t have time to fix all that is getting messed up by this plugin.

    I was hoping that this would work well, so I could buy the premium and get all my combinations, associations, etc. But this is way too frustrating.

    If the import hangs, it probably comes from a timeout or from the memory too low on your WordPress server.
    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.

    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:
    on Windows: https://www.fredericgilles.net/migrate-wordpress-local-windows-server/
    or on Mac: https://www.fredericgilles.net/how-to-migrate-to-wordpress-from-various-cms-on-a-mac-local-server/

    THank you for your reply. I added both those changes to both files, and nothing is different. It imports 20 in about a minute, then it’s done. I’ve tested this enough times to get to 1200 products. SUPER FRUSTRATED.
    Please also see my site to tell me what to do about the many items it added to my menus.
    If we could just get this to work right, without hosing my site so hard, I would buy the pro version so i can get my attributes and variations.
    Thank you.

    I have looked at your site.
    No menus have been imported because you use the free version of the plugin. Only the Premium version can import the navigation menus.
    Moreover there is no menus defined on your WordPress site. And when there are no menus defined, WordPress displays by default all the pages in the main menu.
