How can developers ensure the smooth transfer of forums while avoiding errors related to PHP memory limits during SQL dump imports?

Developers can avoid errors related to PHP memory limits during SQL dump imports by increasing the memory_limit setting in the php.ini file or by setting it programmatically within the script using ini_set(). This will allow the script to allocate more memory for processing large SQL files during imports.

// Increase PHP memory limit programmatically
ini_set('memory_limit', '512M');
