Generator times out

    Hi, awesome plugin, thanks for that.
    At the moment I am testing a wordpress capabilities and need lots of posts to test it throughout, like more than a million.
    Though, at the moment I am trying to generate about 100.000 posts to start with, but the generator times out often. It stops at random intervals, sometimes after 40 posts generated, sometimes after 500. Is there anything server side related I can change what might solve this? Thanks in advance.
    Here a screenshot with my settings:

    So, there are a few things that might be happening, could be that the Image Providers are taking too long to respond due to the amount of images that will be requested from your servers one after the other.

    Can you check if on the AJAX response there are any Notices/Warnings when you do this procedure with WP_DEBUG turned on?

    If you use only “placehold.it” on the Image provider this problem might go away because of the size of the images.

    Plus, I’m going to release a version this week or early next week, depending on how things go, I will see if I can fit a fix to prevent the timeout due to image problems.

    Thanks for the quick reply!

    I got a Ajax respond error yes:

    I will try a run with placeholder.it only.
    Maybe it will be nice to use the media library as a source option for image files?

    So, unfortunately, that is a bug on your server denying the request, it can happen depending on how often it’s pinging back on itself.

    So I will try to make the AJAX calls a bit more failsafe so that if that happens the request is just repeated.

    Just to make sure, check if you have a response tab on that “failed” request. Screenshot below:

    I guess indeed it’s the photo services, I just did a run with just placeholder.it only, works way better but it did stop at around 30.000 posts.

    Thanks man! I think it’s due to the amount of requests… I still have to see what I can do about that.
