Hi, can you import a gallery to envira gallery that is not an envira gallery?
Do you have to have the premium version to be able to export?
Thanks
Sorry, just found the answer to my question. Thanks
Is there a limit to the number of photos that can be uploaded at one time? I imported a test file with a couple of photos and it worked fine. Then I imported the real file with about 2,000 photos, but it uploads quickly with a success message and no photos loaded.
Hi Corey 🙂 My name is Barbi in support and I’m happy to answer any questions for you! Envira doesn’t have any limits however there can be other reasons causing this for you. It could be that the server is timing out or it’s running out of memory trying to import that many images in one go. It could also be the hosting company is limiting this on their server configuration.
I would recommend reaching out to the hosting company and having them investigate this further for you. You may want to start by asking them to increase settings like your PHP max_execution_time and your WordPress memory but other settings may need to be increased as well to allow for that many images to be uploaded at once.
Hope that helps! 🙂
