[wp-hackers] Mass-Import Process to run in background

[Jaime Martínez]

Hi Alex,

I sugest you use http://wp-cli.org and look at existing code like the wp user import-csv, wp post create or wp media regenerate for inspiration.

You can create an custom command that runs your code from the commandline. No time-outs :)

Saves time building an interface.

Ciao,

Jaime
