Hi
I have a joomla site with 3400 k2 items and 150 articles, I want to import these items to wordpress (with fg joomla) but after a while it freezes and I need to stop/start the process. I did it for some days and now it imported the media more than one time and no posts (articles) or products (items) are imported yet. I have 32400 media item which means all of images are duplicated or triplicated. I think it's because of server time out. but I don't know what to do. Can anyone help me?

I don't understand how you get there, you still need to be able to. It's true that I used a different plugin to import data from Prestashop to Woocommerce. But that's what the developers think. Modules work great, only if they are up to date and compatible with new versions of wp and woo. There in the module it is clearly written to import data with or without media. The media must be on the same server as the database and the imported website. I think it would be even better if it were in the same database. joomla and wp can be in the same database because the names of the tables are different. There is a checkmark to delete data after each import.

All hostings are cheap and domestic, unless you have a special plan in a dedicated cloud hosting with a minimum of 12 GB of RAM and a 6 core processor, if you have a poor hosting with 2 GB of RAM and one processor - there is no point in doing any complicated imports. Then install the xampp program on Windows 10.
I use this version which works perfectly with wordpress: XAMPP release 8.1.17. Read about the configuration of php.ini, set everything, install svar wp, your old domain and start importing.
It is true that the computer must be at least i7 and not used for additional work during import.

It was perfectly imported to me with a 20K picture. The truth is that it was necessary to update and test the import process about ten times.

Another way is that you can create photos at once with the whole directory from Joomla and import them manually by adding photo IDs to wp tables.
