Hi all. Have a question about importing.
I've tested the import of an existing site with 850k posts & 150k attachments from phpBB to XF a couple times. I'm running into an issue with my server storage allotment, though.
When I do a full test import, I run into storage warnings, eventually running out of storage space prior to the import completing.
When I start over and test the import WITHOUT attachments, it goes through without issue.
Is there a way to do the import differently and work around this? Maybe "moving" attachments instead of "copying" them? (No idea if this is a thing - just thinking out loud).
Appreciate any thoughts.
