    Hi,

    I used this plugin for one of my clients where I was in need to create a custom post type and fields. After creating, I migrated the old website content to wordpress( custom post type ) which counts more then 10000.

    After data migration I went onto check the admin side(CMS) to view the list of the migrated custom post but it displayed internal server error message.
    The front end was working fine.

    When I enabled the wordpress debugger it showed me that the allocated memory was not sufficient.

    I tried to allocate more memory via code,php.ini and .htaccess in wp-admin folder of no use.

    But when I checked the database all the data where there for the given custom post type.

    First I thought this to be wordpress issue but I found that wordpress has the capability to handle million posts.

    When I remigrated the data from custom post type to wordpress default post type(post), it was working very good.

    Is this really a plugin issue in listing the custom post type in the admin?

  • This problem shows up when you use a hierarchical custom post type because WordPress needs to read all posts in order to create the tree-like display of hierarchical posts.

    With default WordPress, this is the case of pages, but not posts.
    Can you confirm your custom post type is a hierarchical one or not?

    Apart from this, to increase available memory to WordPress you need to add the following line to wp-config.php

    define(‘WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘512m’);

    Thank you Caridad. I had around 15000 post which it uses hierarchical. But still the memory does not seems to be sufficient. Hence I moved all my post to default post type.

    Thank you Caridad. I don’t use your plugin but I too was having this issue. After checking my CPT it was too set to hierarchical. Once I changed that to ‘hierarchical’ => false, it work. Thanks.
