Hi Sapirocco,
Thanks for your interest in the plugin. I used to export a site with thousands of posts/pages, but I was running WordPress locally (on my personal computer) and so was able to allocate more memory/adjust PHP’s timeout settings.
I would suggest trying such a method out – running your WordPress locally, this may also save you a few $ if you are then able to cancel the GoDaddy hosting.
Let me know if you need help setting up on your local machine.
Cheers,
Leon
Thanks Leon for your prompt response. By running wordpress locally you mean as on a dedicated own server? What are the first steps to take in order to accomplish that? Thanks again.
Hi Sapirocco,
Any personal computer (Mac, PC or Linux) will be able to run a webserver with WordPress.
Depending on what operating system you have, the instructions will vary.
Could you please let me know what operating system you have on your personal computer (desktop/laptop, doesn’t matter).
Cheers,
Leon
Sure thanks Leon for your interest. I am using Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa
Hi Sapirocco,
This is Ubuntu’s official page, which may be a good starting point (Mint 17 is based on Ubuntu 14.04, I believe, and steps should be identical).
