 * Well, if you would like to restore several sites at once, you can, but we don’t
   recommend it. If you need to, you can start with a few sites at a time, say 5(
   as some clients have done and it worked).
 * But if you don’t get errors with 5 sites at a time, you can always increase to
   10 sites at a time, assuming your target server has the resources (CPU, memory,
   and disk space) to handle it. If you got a runtime error on a specific site, 
   it is because the database was locked by another site (that was running in parallel
   import). You can always re-import this site after all sites are done. It should
   work.
 * You don’t need a premium version to do this if you are only restoring multisite
   subsites. But if you restore a main site of a multisite or use any of the PRO
   features [listed on this page](https://codexonics.com/prime_mover/prime-mover/pricing/),
   then you need to upgrade to the PRO plan. You also need to use the PRO version
   if you intend to create a blank subsite with a specific target ID (that matches
   your package blog ID). You can see more details [in this tutorial](https://codexonics.com/prime_mover/prime-mover/can-i-change-the-exporting-blog-id-to-another-site-importing-blog-id/#workaround-two).
 * If you are interested, [drop us a message](https://codexonics.com/contact/) on
   our official website with any further questions. I’ll mark this ticket resolved
   here since WordPress.org forum policy does not allow discussions regarding paid
   plugin features. Thank you!

 * Thank you for the interest in using Prime Mover plugin! Regarding your question–
   sorry but the plugin does not support parallel or simultaneous import. You can
   refer to this [documentation](https://codexonics.com/prime_mover/prime-mover/troubleshooting-guide/parallel-export-and-import-restore-is-it-supported/)
   for details.
 * The reason is that parallel imports can cause unexpected race conditions during
   import, resulting in import issues. While you can do this with the plugin, we
   don’t recommend doing simultaneous import. This applies to both the free and 
   pro versions.
 * Thank you again. If you have questions about our PRO version, please visit our
   official website to contact us (link added previously).

 * Hi JK! That’s right, when you use the free version, you must install it in your
   main site’s network plugins (Network Admin -> Plugins) and activate it there.
   Once the free version is network-activated, you can start backing up as many 
   subsites as possible. You can see the backup functionality in Network admin -
   > Sites. But if you want to back up the main site, you need to upgrade to the
   PRO version. Thanks again for your interest in the plugin. Let me know if you
   need any clarification.

 * Hello JK! Thank you for your interest in using the Prime Mover plugin! Regarding
   the answers to your questions, please check out below:
    - _Question 1.) I can use the free version. Right?_
 * Yes, please note that in the free version, you can manually back up as many multisite
   subsites as you like, on demand (any time you need it). The free version does
   not have a trigger for automatic backups – you can only do so manually. But it
   won’t have a limit on the number of subsites or the package size (backup and 
   restoration).
 * However, the main site requires a PRO license. The PRO license allows you to 
   backup and restore the main site, as well as use the automatic/scheduled backup
   feature (available to all sites) to run it on schedule (instead of triggering
   it manually).
    - _Question 2.) Do I install only on the main site, then back up the entire 
      multisite?_
 * No, the Prime Mover plugin needs to be installed on network plugins and network-
   activated. Once network-activated, you can now back up individual sub-sites and
   main sites (PRO). However, as of the latest version, it cannot yet back up the
   entire multisite as one package. The primary reason is that this plugin is designed
   to split and back up individual sites rather than the whole. However, we are 
   already adding this feature for the future, although there is no definite timeline
   yet for its release.
    - _Question 3.)  If so, can I then restore selected subsites or the main site
      independently?_
 * Yes, the plugin can be used to back up and restore selected subsites independently(
   including the main site in the PRO feature). If you restore a subsite, it won’t
   affect other sites in the network, except, of course, for its plugins and themes,
   which are shared by all sites by design.
    - _Question 4.) Or, do I have to install the plugin on each of the sites, main
      and sub? If so, I assume I can back up each independently and restore each
      independently._
 * The plugin can only be network-activated. So you need to network-activate this
   plugin. Once the network is activated, it is available for use across all sites
   in the multisite network.
    - _Question 5.) Also, I see discussions here about why you do not include inactive
      plugins in the backups, at least for migration. Will backups include the entire
      site’s assets, including inactive plugins, so that a restore will recreate
      the site completely?_
 * Yes, that’s correct – the backup does not include inactive plugins/themes to 
   save package size, but this request is already on our to-do list (there is still
   no definite timeline for this feature yet).
 * The backup includes the site database, media files for that site, activated plugins
   and themes, and finally, the site’s users. You can find more details [in this FAQ](https://codexonics.com/prime_mover/prime-mover/faq/what-is-the-complete-list-of-files-migrated-or-backed-up/).
 * Since some of your questions touched on the PRO aspects of the plugin, you can
   send us additional questions via our [official contact page](https://codexonics.com/contact/)(
   since answering PRO-related questions/features isn’t allowed on the WordPress
   free forum). I’m marking this ticket as resolved.
 * Cheers,
 * Emerson

 * Hi Yavuzyayla,
    Thanks for using Prime Mover! What’s the runtime error? Can you
   please send the runtime error log details via our [official contact form](https://codexonics.com/contact/).
 *  Usually at user import step – the primary cause of runtime error is `illegal
   offset type` – if you are getting similar errors like this and you are using 
   PHP 8.0 – try downgrading to PHP 7.4 and see if it helps.
 *  If you already tried the workaround and you still have issues – can you provide
   us a link to download the `WPRIME` package (you can share in Gdrive) – we will
   try to check if the runtime error is reproducible in our test server.
 *  Please send the link via [our contact form](https://codexonics.com/contact/).
   This way we will know if the error is server or package-related. Thanks!

 * [@mhurwicz](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mhurwicz/) Regarding your latest
   issue posted here: [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/invalid-site-footprint-while-exporting/#post-11854942](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/invalid-site-footprint-while-exporting/#post-11854942)
 * I assume you have gateway timeout errors while importing/uploading.
    I suggest
   this fix:
    - Restart your PHP / Apache. This will stop any ongoing process running so it
      will be back to normal.
    - If target uploads is outdated and no longer used, you can delete /wp-content/
      uploads/ it to save space (so it will be replaced with target site)
    - If you want to upload a very big file (> 1GB),please add this to your wp-config.
      php at the target site (where the import will be done):
    - `define('PRIME_MOVER_UPLOAD_REFRESH_INTERVAL', 5000);`
    - This will send a fewer upload requests to your server to avoid timeouts and
      overloading it causing gateway errors.
    - Please use beta 1.0.4. [You can download it here.](https://codexonics.com/prime-mover/beta/prime-mover-free.1.0.4-beta.zip)
      when restoring the site.
 *  - Yesterday I tested >1GB on an upload connection, the same as yours. It was
      able to install using version 1.0.4 beta using that wp-config.php constant
      added. Can you please try it and see if it works for you?
    - Please let me know how it goes. If you have a new unrelated issue, please 
      create a separate ticket. Thank you!

 * Well if you are sure the posts have been moved correctly and accessible at the
   new location. You simply need to 301 redirect the old post URLs to the new location(`/
   blog/`). This way, your visitors will be redirected to the new URL.
 * Please read this guide on doing 301 redirects: [https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/beginners-guide-to-creating-redirects-in-wordpress/](https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/beginners-guide-to-creating-redirects-in-wordpress/)

 * I have not tested this but I think this should work in theory:
    1. Export all posts in root domain in Tools -> Export
    2. Install and activate WordPress Importer in your `/blog/` subdirectory
    3. Import all posts to this subdirectory using the importer
    4. Clean up (if needed)
    5. Done.
 * The above assumes you only want to move posts and not the entire root domain.
   I suggest to try the above steps in a dev site and not in a production site (
   for testing purposes).

 * Your custom CSS needs to override the theme style.css. You can try again the 
   custom CSS below and add `!important` designation to the style:
 *     ```
       .main-content .more-link {
        display: none !important;
       }
       ```
   
 * I added important to the CSS to mean that it will rule over the style.css. But
   still the best way of doing this is inside a custom style.css inside your child
   theme. I recommend you should learn doing that and its pretty helpful to you 
   in the long term.
 * If that still doesn’t work, I could no longer think of other solutions. Maybe
   other volunteers here will assist. Thanks.

 * You can hide it in different ways. It depends on what is given.
    - If your theme has an option or setting to hide , you can simply turn it off.
      I see that you are using a premium theme, so its better if you check that 
      this setting exist.
    - Or create a child theme out of the parent theme and then use the child theme
      to customize and remove the more link markup. You can do this by overriding
      the parent template that outputs it: [https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
    - Lastly if you don’t want to create child theme. Easiest is to hide via custom
      CSS in customizer:
    -     ```
          .main-content .more-link {
           display: none;
          }
          ```
