Load only wordpress core during woocommerce product import

    I am importing products from shopmaster.com into my site.

    it takes roughly 10 seconds to upload a product to woocommerce . Each product has multiple images and product attributes.

    10 seconds seems too much, i read about optimizing the writing speed for woocommerce and it seems the only way was to disable full wordpress loading during product import ( when shopmaster calls woocommerce api to write products into my store )

    I know that i can load minimal wordpress without themes and plugins by including the following snippet into my code

    //Tell WordPress to only load the basics
define('SHORTINIT',1);

//get path of wp-load.php and load it
require_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/wp-load.php';

    Am wondering where i should place the code since shopmaster.com calls woocommerce directly.

    Hi there,

    Thank you for reaching out!

    I understand that you’d like to only load the “short” version of WordPress in order to speed up product import process and you’d like to know where to place define('SHORTINIT',1); and require_once $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . '/wp-load.php';

    It looks like both should be added to wp-config.php file:

    I hope this helps!
