Hello.
I am trying to import demo and it's not working.
Everything goes perfectly find but nothing is imported when I go to the site.
I am importing JAVA theme and using both Import Theme Options and Import Demo Content
Everything progresses fine and successfully ends.
When I go to site, nothing is imported...no menu, pages, post or theme options.
Hi there,
Which GP Premium version are you using?
Let me know :)
I am using following

Theme GeneratePressVersion: 3.0.3
Here is my site health info.
After doing more research, following is happening.
- Widget: imported
- Pages: not imported
- Posts: not imported
- Theme Configation: Not imported
- Menu: Not imported
- Plugin: Installed, Activated
- Media: only log imports
Can you follow the steps here to retrieve further bugging info?

Let me know :)
I did what you asked by adding following
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );
...Demo Importer runs fine and does not generate any log as there is no error.
I get following at the end which shows everything is perfectly fine.

So there's nothing at all in the debug.log file?
What about the error_log file on the server? Anything in there?
The content part is being skipped, so there must be some sort of log as to why. That log will be the key in figuring out what we're looking at.
There is none on eithere. I shared my wordpress admin credential. Please log in and see if you can help.
Thank you.
I did log in and try it and can confirm it's not working for you. However, I would need some sort of clue as to why it's not working to figure out what's going on.
If you'd like to provide sFTP details (privately, of course), I should be able to debug further as I'll be able to access logs.
Let me know :)

Hi there,
Something is preventing your server from download the content XML correctly. Can you ask your hosting to make sure the following extension is active on your server?: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/importing-content-doesnt-finish/#post-1718116
If that doesn't work, this is another related solution: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/import-from-site-library-but-has-no-demo-content/#post-932022
Is there a way to just download and import demo site?
I am looking for Java demo so all I need is settings and xml for import to do it manually.
Thank you.
Sure, but you won't get the benefits of the import finishing, like imported widgets or site options.
Here's the XML file: https://gpsites.co/files/java/content.xml
You can import that in "Tools > Import".
