[ERROR] Failed to import "Home 2" page

- You get an error that you cannot import home pages when importing demo data

- Cause:

The problem may be due to a security plugin/or a security configuration that prevents pages containing Emoij characters from being added. Because the theme's home pages contain Emoji characters, WordPress cannot import them.

- Resolve:

  1. The workaround is that you need to find your security plugin or security configuration and temporarily close it.

  2. Or a simpler way is to use this custom PHP function to remove the Emoji characters in the demo pages and then import will work fine.

    add_filter( 'wp_insert_post_data', function( $data, $postarr ) {
    if ( ! empty( $data['post_content'] ) ) {
        $data['post_content'] = wp_encode_emoji( $data['post_content'] );
    }
    return $data;
    }, 99, 2 );

    To add a PHP function to your WordPress site:

    • Navigate to Theme File Editor: go to Appearance > Theme File Editor.

    • Select the functions.php File:

      • On the right side, you’ll see a list of theme files. Find and click on functions.php under the Theme Files section. This file is typically listed as Theme Functions.

    • Add Your PHP Function

    • Save
