    I am Managing a website that has over 150k posts, the last time tried to migrate the site SEO Plugin to RankMath, it took so much time that I have to stop it and reactivate Yoast.

    Is there a way t speed up the migration process, even at the expense of the server resource?

    Thank you

  • Hello,

    Thanks for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Since you have a lot of posts, please get in touch with your hosting provider and make sure that you have the following PHP values:

    PHP Memory Limit: 512M
    Max input time: 150
    PHP time limit: 120
    PHP max input variables: 1000

    Try to import the data after that. Here is a guide that can help with migrating from Yoast to Rank Math: https://rankmath.com/kb/yoast-seo-migration/

    Let us know how that goes. Looking forward to your update.

    Thanks for the response,
    I have set and confirm the current PHP configuration as below

    PHP Memory Limit: 1024M
    Max input time: 150
    PHP time limit: 120
    PHP max input variables: 2000

    The VPS is 4cpu-16gbRAM, how long will it take for the 150k migration to finish, like estimate time so I can be patient this time around. I want to do this quickly so we can go pro.

    Thank you

    Hello,

    Unfortunately, we cannot determine a fixed/estimated time since this can depend on a lot of factors (like the server’s performance and speed).

    As you’ve increased the PHP variables limits, I suggest you increase them even further (maximum possible) since you have a lot of posts data to be imported.

    Once done, you can start the import process in your free time and let it complete itself. Please note that it is not recommended to stop the import process in-between as it might result in corrupted data.

    Hope this helps.

    Thank you.
