Importing theme demo content always times out Reason: http_request_failed - cURL error 2

What issue or error are you experiencing?

When importing theme demo data, the import always times out at time of 20000 - 20009ms with following error. I tried changing values in php.ini, wp-config but nothing works. I have also tried deactivating all plugins before importing, it doesn’t help. I am not using any firewall or security plugins

An error occurred while fetching file from: WpResidence Demo !
Reason: http_request_failed - cURL error 28: Operation timed out after 20009 milliseconds with 2118187 out of 6363198 bytes received

What steps can be taken to replicate the issue? Feel free to include screenshots, videos, etc

Security Reminder
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.

Hi there, @bobjohnston2001 - welcome to the Local community! :wave:

What theme are you using? I’m assuming this one?

If so, it looks like that team may have a support option and I would recommend starting there for help with importing the theme demo date:
