Data that has more than few thousand rows can sometimes not be imported in this way directly via the plugin ( depending on the server) - this is a limitation that is coming from WordPress itself combined with server performance.
But there is a solution.
What you can do is, if you get errors, and it does not work importing directly through our plugin,
you can then import the file, in form of Excel, CSV, or spreadsheet directly in your database via your database management tool, such as PhPMyAdmin.
And then you will be able to create a simple SQL query based table from this database table, by using this query (for example):
Good day,
I have a table I like to import, which has the following details:
- CSV
- ca. 130 mb
- comma separated
- 72 columns
- 1048576 rows
There are lots of cells, with a lot of text. 500-1000 characters, but the majority is rather short. 10-100 characters, I guess
My PHP configuration is:
memory_limit 256m
max_execution_time (in Sek.) 180
upload_max_filesize / post_max_size 200m
Still I cannot import the table. I tried it via wpDataTables, as well as direct import via myPHPAdmin
You may have an idea?
Thanks for your support! :)
Best regards
Darius

SELECT * FROM table_1
Let me know if that helps.
