    I haven’t been using this plugin very long – 3 months – and I only have it set up to manually import from six different feeds. I have run the imports a total of perhaps a dozen times. It has imported 110 items in those three months, most of which are still sitting as drafts.

    But in my wp_options folder, there are currently 109,848 enties that look like this:

    option_name:
    _pmxi_session_df155a420431320771f6d32bf2ff379a

    option_value:
    a:0:{}

    autoload:
    no

    It’s my understanding that these are all related to this plugin.

    Are all 109,848 entries REALLY necessary? Those entries have ballooned my options table alone to 20MB.

    To fix this, change your session settings to one of the other options on the Settings page of WP All Import.

    We’ve had a couple reports of this happening, and we’re not quite sure of the cause yet.

    Do you have WP Cron disabled?

    Is there more news on this? Changed the settings, which didn’t help. Had to clean the database, but am left with a lot of wp_pmxi_posts and wp_options….
    How can I get rid of them?

    found this SQL code to clean at least all sessions:
    DELETE FROM wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE '_pmxi_session_%';

    Sorry, didn’t see this til now. I have the internal WP Cron disabled, but am running it via the server (didn’t like having scheduled posts miss their publish time if no one was on the site at ‘press time’).

    I did the same thing as @intown to clean up my DB, and it doesn’t seem to be as huge a problem, although I got your latest email saying there was a shiny new beta to try out. So I’ll nervously experiment with it.
