Demo import error

I have found the same situation that another user has had Cant import site from Design Cloud this seems to be a regular situation with your demo content and theme.
I have checked with my host: allow_url_fopen setting IS set to on.
Please advise.
Many thanks

@Valueweb,

I recommend the following troubleshooting about your demo import.

1.) Make sure your X/Pro Theme is updated - You can check it here on how to update the theme
2.) Increase PHP Memory Limit
3.) Increase PHP Execution Time Limit

Once you are done and applying all the changes, do the demo import again and please let us know how it goes.

Thank you.

Installed Version 3.2.3
define( ‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’ , ‘512M’ );
set_time_limit(600);

Still failing…

Please contact your web host to configure the following server settings to the specified value or more.

Hope that helps.

I’ll report back once they have confirmed.

Ok, those settings have been applied yet error persists.

Hello @Valueweb,

I have checked your site and I found out that there is an error 503 when you import the Crafty demo. Please check out this article to know more about error 503: https://www.lifewire.com/503-service-unavailable-explained-2622940

By the way, please make sure that you are the latest PHP version. You can check out the rest of the requirements to run WordPress 5.0 from here: https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/

See the secure note.

Hope this helps.

URL is working fine but import is still failing. Can you send the import content to me in a xml file like normal imports in WordPress?

Updated to PHP 7.4 still not working…

Hello @Valueweb,

Thanks for updating in!

Now, I am seeing an error 500 in the backend while loading the Design Cloud.

Please temporarily disable ModSecurity and test the page again. If this time around it works, then you will have to whitelist the URL in your server.

Meanwhile, the MySQL Database version of your server is also in question. You are using 5.5.5-10.3.23-MariaDB-cll-lve. You to update it and make sure that your server configurations have met the necessary requirements as stated by WordPress: https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/

Please let us know how it goes.

Disabling Mod Security throws a WordPress ‘Critical Error’.
