# My Images Are Not Migrated After Transfer?

## Key Takeaways

- UiChemy exports images to a cloud server, which can lead to missing images in Elementor if download times exceed 5 seconds.
- PHP Time Limit should be set to 300s to prevent image download timeouts during import in Elementor.
- UiChemy allows users to combine multiple images into one image to reduce the number of elements exported.

When you export a Figma design using UiChemy and then import it in Elementor, one of the common issues you might face is missing images.

This can especially happen when you use lots of images or large size images (5MB +) in your Figma layout.

## Reason

The reason is when you export your layout from Figma using UiChemy, the images used in the Figma layout are uploaded to our cloud server, and when you import the template in Elementor, it will download the image from our cloud server to your server.

5 seconds is the default HTTP timeout, if your images take more than 5 seconds to download, then it will timeout, and the default Elementor image placeholder will be placed instead of your image. 

The download time will also depend on your server location and network speed.

## Solution

To reduce the problem, make sure you have the following server settings.

- PHP Time Limit: 300s

- PHP Memory Limit: 256M

- PHP Upload Limit: >100M

You can check the following guides to make the changes yourself, or you can contact your hosting provider for the same.

[Increase PHP memory limit and upload limit.](https://wpmudev.com/blog/increase-memory-limit/)

You can also [export your Figma layout with scaled images](https://uichemy.com/docs/how-to-export-your-figma-design-with-scaled-images/) so smaller images are uploaded to reduce the load time.

UiChemy also provides an option to [combine multiple images or elements into one image](https://uichemy.com/docs/combine-multiple-elements-in-figma-and-export-as-an-image/) to reduce the number of elements exported.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Q: Why are my images not showing after transferring from Figma to Elementor?**
A: Images may not appear if they take longer than 5 seconds to download from UiChemy's cloud server during the import process. This timeout can occur with large images (over 5MB) or due to slow server response times. To mitigate this, consider optimizing your images before export.

**Q: What server settings should I check if my images aren't migrating?**
A: Ensure your server settings include a PHP Time Limit of 300 seconds, a PHP Memory Limit of 256MB, and a PHP Upload Limit greater than 100MB. These settings help prevent timeouts and memory issues during the image import process when using the UiChemy Figma to WordPress Converter.

**Q: How can I optimize my Figma images for better migration results?**
A: Export your Figma layout with scaled images to reduce the file size, which can help images download faster during the import process. Additionally, you can combine multiple images or elements into one image using UiChemy, which decreases the number of elements that need to be transferred.

**Q: What common mistakes should I avoid when transferring images from Figma to WordPress?**
A: A common mistake is not checking server settings, which can lead to timeouts. Ensure your PHP limits are set appropriately. Also, avoid using overly large images in your Figma designs, as they can hinder the migration process.

**Q: Can I use UiChemy with any page builder in WordPress?**
A: UiChemy is compatible with Elementor, Gutenberg, and Bricks Builder, but it does not work with Divi, WPBakery, or other page builders. Make sure to use one of the supported builders to ensure proper image migration and layout functionality.
