I can import Minimal Portfolio Demo as well as Startup Business Demo no problem. However Default Demo and Enfold 2017 won’t import. Enfold 2017 come up with a long scroll list of messages after the import “Menu item skipped due to invalid menu slug: main-menu” and this is the one I’d like to start with. What is the difference? Where can I start to diagnose this?
CheersMay 4, 2018 at 5:12 am #951272Hey id8872,
Which webhost are you using, is it a managed wordpress host?
Are you using settings like this:
PHP Version: 7.0.x
PHP Time Limit: No limit
PHP Memory Limit: 256M
PHP Post Max Size: 50M
PHP Max Upload Size: 20MAre you working on one site, or many? Perhaps we can assist with a manual import.
Best regards,
MikeMay 4, 2018 at 4:06 pm #951745No, a self hosted site and a default php install.
Thanks I’ll look into the php settings- This reply was modified 6 years, 6 months ago by id8872.
May 4, 2018 at 4:24 pm #951755Different error messages that flashed too fast to read but no demo imported still.
Just one site and I’d appreciate some manual import assistance.- This reply was modified 6 years, 6 months ago by id8872.

@id8872 If you include the admin login & FTP login in the Private Content area I can try a manual install of the 2017 Demo.
Please note that you will lose all content, setting, users, etc. After the install I will naturally add your user as admin.Best regards,
MikeMay 7, 2018 at 3:45 am #952447No, I don’t think that’s going to fly

@id8872
Ok, I can understand that.
So to do it yourself, install WordPress & Enfold on a localhost, & then install the demo you wish.
Then upload all of the files in /wp-content/uploads/ from your localhost via FTP to your live site, then push your database from your localhost to your live site using this plugin.
Read the plugin site on how to use it.One other option is to install the demo on a localhost, FTP the files, and use this plugin to save your database, and then use it in PHPmyAdmin to replace your live site database. Mostly the same steps, only the first plugin is easier.
I have found that installing the demo on a localhost works 100% of the time, and using the plugin to push the database work about 95% of the time, of the sites that the user could not install the demo themselves.
I found that some managed WP hosts, have made many changes to permissions, firewalls, & security scripts so that the demo install either throws a false positive or permissions are not allowed or the process times out, such as “Godaddy Managed WP”
Some hosts, such as Strato webhost, refuse to assist in debugging the issue. Although using these steps above have worked on Strato 100% of the time so far.I firmly believe that the issue is with the webhost not allowing the demo import, a localhost import works 100% of the time… with the correct minimum settings.
PHP Version: 5.6.x PHP Time Limit: No limit PHP Memory Limit: 256M PHP Post Max Size: 50M PHP Max Upload Size: 20M
Please try this for yourself, I hope this helps, as always are happy to assist.
Best regards,
MikeMay 8, 2018 at 1:40 pm #953367i’m trying too to import Enfold 2017 Demo without any result. I made wp reset a lot of time. Can you help me please? I gone mad with this…

Please note that you will lose all content, setting, users, etc. You will be given a new admin login based on the login details you give.Best regards,
MikeMay 9, 2018 at 4:06 pm #954016No joy. New instance of server, wp still set for localhost, php upgraded as above… still get menu-slug message on import.
I think enfold isn’t for me and has taken up too much of my time. I’m going back to what I’m familiar withMay 10, 2018 at 3:13 am #954254Hi,
Sorry to hear that, what type of localhost did you try to use mamp, xampp, wamp?Best regards,
MikeMay 10, 2018 at 9:28 pm #954897No LAMP. gave it one last complete new build with same errors
May 11, 2018 at 1:10 am #954950Hi,
Do you use a firewall? This is strange because I use a portable wamp, and import the demo about 3 times a week. Here’s the settings I use:
I imagine how frustrating this must be for you, I’m willing to try importing this for you the way I described earlier so you can start working on your site. I know you said no, but I wanted to offer again.Best regards,
