    OK, but it shouldn’t be using that much memory. It hasn’t before. I will try (again) to have hostgator just kill all my processes or something. I don’t think it’s the site. I am just trying to add a pluging.

    OK, I can check thanks.

    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 6765753 bytes) in /home2/redback/public_html/ecoble.com/wp-includes/functions.php on line 435

    Any thoughts about this error? I am still getting in when trying to re-activate some plugins – ie super cache.

    But in the meantime, looks like the theme was the problem…. i had changed to a few other themes to check that but they must have been old too… uploaded the twentyseventeen via ftp, changed to that and seems WAY faster….

    thx

    activating the cache plugin didn’t work assume due to the error…tried again and got this:

    Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

    Yes:(. I assume so. Sorry, i should have added to that thread… Finally got around to having a look at it again.

    I’ll stay within this thread now…

    I used this method to see php version
    https://www.hostgator.com/help/article/phpinfo

    PHP Version 5.2.17

    I tried to disable plugins, got this:

    Notice: add_custom_background is deprecated since version 3.4.0! Use add_theme_support( ‘custom-background’, $args ) instead. in /home2/redback/public_html/ecoble.com/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3831

    Wouldn’t functions.php be a wordpress distribution file? Why would that have an error in it?

    I managed finally to deactivate the plugins… Then I installed the 2017 theme…..

    Then, I tried to install just 1 plugin = super cache and got this:

    Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 268435456 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 7766498 bytes) in /home2/redback/public_html/ecoble.com/wp-includes/functions.php on line 435

    Maybe my site/account needs flushing again at hostgator?

    thx

    Thanks but that did not work for some reason. I guess I might have to start again.

    ok, just answered my own question i guess…
    I edited above link manually using quicktime viper tag and that worked….So, I guess manual might be the way to go rather than re-import.

    Although i am interested in the GPP slideshow….I might fiddle with that. Can you edit a single post manually to make just that post use GPP?

    Hi Daryl and All –

    I have a blog that I successfully used the posterous importer direct from posterous to my blog – ie not through wordpress.com

    All worked fine (had to run it a few times though) except for videos in my posts. ie:

    http://brettstark.com/imported/jack-and-jill-by-millie

    On my server they are all .mov files.

    Is there a way I have these show up as videos in wordpress? I am not sure how wordpress handles video. Does wordpress support .mov files? I would like the posts to show up with a video window within the post and a ‘play’ icon and have the video simply play if you click it – like on posterous. Now if you hit the link, you get a whole new page with the .mov eventually playing…

    I’ve already done an import so not sure I really want to do it again since most of the site/posts are OK. Is there a way I can manually fix the few video posts I have (not many)?

    thanks,
    Brett

    Thanks, I will look at that thread

    OK, so more detail here.

    – i grabbed the newer/dev version, and on 1 of my sites had to run it several times (brettandmb.net) to have it fully work through all posts…at some times it just ‘stopped’. On another site, it ran through once without stopping and I did not have to run it again (brettstark.com).

    – the plugin correctly grabbed and imported all posts and pictures, including put the images on the local self hosted server in the uploads directory and linking to those rather than posterous links.

    – however, for videos, it imported the post the video was in and actually copied the video file (.mov etc) into the local uploads directory etc. BUT, the link in the post still points to the video on posterous.
    ** Anyone have any idea how to fix this? Does the plugin need a fix? is there any other easy way to fix these links rather than manually updating each post?

    Another curious thing – I am seeing in my media area of the blogs that each media item, (image/video) has a ‘-2’ on the end of the url/slug compared to the corresponding post. Not sure if this is OK/correct or another issue – again though the images within media seem to be linked correctly. Also, within the media library, everything shows as attached.

    Thx

    IN here:
    http://wordpress.org/support/topic/hangs-on-please-wait-with-spinner?replies=36

    There is reference to a newer/dev version of the plugin.

    It worked better for me, but i had to run it a few times.

    Everything is good except for videos. It copied over the videos to my local hosted server, but did not update the links – the links still point to posterous. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this other than manually update each post?

    Thanks

    “In order to fix that, I added a target=”_blank” to the login-link at the main page.”
    – Stefan21 – where exactly do i put this, what file and line number/location?

    thanks!!
