Re: Importing from WordPress Problem

Ask your hosting company about increasing the maximum execution time for PHP scripts.

Re: Importing from WordPress Problem

I am not sure why, but it seems we are setting a maximum execution time of ~330seconds in the import script. Try editing it manually for now in

textpattern/include/txp_import.php

around line 161:

ini_set('max_execution_time', 300 + intval($ini_time) );

Increase the 300 (seconds) to some higher value. Be aware that it is posible that other timeouts (by the webserver etc.) could come into play as well.

Re: Importing from WordPress Problem

^ That fixed it :)
I guess the problem was that there was almost 2000 posts to import so 300 was to short.
