Maximum listings per import

[variation]

I have a spreadsheet with 1,000 listings that I’m trying to import but the feature stops at 168 listings. How can I import more than this amount at once?

Thanks for reporting this - it seems to be a bug related to the server execution time, we’ll update Import to run the import process in batches. If you have access to the PHP settings please increase the max_execution_time, I guess it’s set to 30 seconds now.

I’m using HivePress with a third party theme. Can I increase the max execution time via PHP snippet?

[ihor]

Yes, please try using this one:

ini_set('max_execution_time', 300);

You can add it via the Code Snippets plugin and enable only if large import is required, setting 300 seconds is not recommended for normal website usage.

Thanks Ihor.
