 * If it hangs, please use our recommended settings during the migration.
    The recommended
   php.ini settings are:
 * max_execution_time=3600
    max_input_time=3600 memory_limit=1G post_max_size=1G
   upload_max_filesize=2G
 * also please add:
    define(‘WP_MEMORY_LIMIT’, ‘1024M’); in your wp-config.php file
   to increase the memory allowed by WordPress. Be careful if you copy paste the‘
   character may transfer as ” or ’ or ` See here for more information: [https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/increase-memory-limit/](https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/increase-memory-limit/)
 * If you are on a shared host, you can’t modify the php.ini file. Another solution
   is to install WordPress on your local computer and run the import in local. In
   this case, you won’t have the limitations of the shared host. Here is the procedure:

 * In any case, if you click again on the import button, it will resume the import
   where it left off.

 * Thanks Kerfred!!! Finally got back to this. I increased the memory allowed as
   you suggested and that resolved it. All is well.
 * Thanks!

 * I am having the same issue but it hangs at 6%. Tried setting the PHP parameters
   in my wordpress instance yet the same issue exists.
 * Any idea how to fix that?

 * You can try to run the import in local. [https://www.fredericgilles.net/support/kb/faq.php?id=30](https://www.fredericgilles.net/support/kb/faq.php?id=30)
