 * Hi, your memory limit is exceeded.
    1. the limit in the .htaccess is set to low-
   > check if you can find a file called “.htaccess” the . is important, this should
   be in one of those folders /htdocs/clickandbuilds/cucinaconrob22/ If you find
   this file (it is a hidden file you have to activate seeing hidden files if you
   use f.E. FTP) check if there is a line that says “memory_limit: 124M” try to 
   raise that to 192M If this doesn’t work: 2. your hosting plan does not include
   the required memory -> contact your hoster to upgrade your plan

 * It remains one of them:
    Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 127926272) (tried
   to allocate 25483256 bytes) in /homepages/22/d939725119/htdocs/clickandbuilds/
   cucinaconrob22/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-importer/parsers/class-wxr-parser-
   simplexml.php on line 27
 * Memory limit substituted up to 1024 in php.ini, symbolic coll. created
 * upload_max_filesize=1024M;
    post_max_size=1024M; memory_limit=1024M;
 * Then, talking with hosting, they said they have 512M limit. It seems high confronted
   to the 192M suggested. Are we sure there isn’t anything else we can check?

 * An extract for each type of line there are many lines:
 * Failed to import Media “Calamari con pomodori, basilico e polenta”
 * Failed to create new user for simone. Their posts will be attributed to the current
   user.
 * Post “Focaccia pasquale dolce veneta” already exists.
 * Product “La pizza con lievito madre di Renato Bosco – giovedì 31 marzo 2016 -
   18/22” already exists.
 * Order “Order – January 17, 2013 @ 08:21 PM” already exists.
 * Coupon “vieceli” already exists.
 * Also with reviews (I don’t mind to lost reviews)
