Programmatically pause the SearchWP indexer during a content import

gistfile1.php

<?php

// in order to prevent the SearchWP indexer from being triggered many times at once
// we are going to disable it while we run our content import like so:
add_filter( 'searchwp_indexer_enabled', '__return_false' );

// process our content migration
my_begin_content_import();

// with the migration complete we can re-enable the SearchWP indexer and
// it will pick up all of the content that was just imported
remove_filter( 'searchwp_indexer_enabled', '__return_false' );
