  Hello, I was part of a study abroad blog project that used Atavist, but it looks like Atavist no longer exists. The link to the project does not open. I was going to use the posts and project as part of my resume. Is there a way to view the project anymore?

  Hi there,

  It’s possible to view your project anymore as Atavist has shut down. It might be possible however to get an export of your Atavist site’s content and then create a new WordPress.com site and import it. Is that something you might be interested to?

  Hi, I submitted the request for the project to be transferred to WordPress. Do I wait for anything else? What is my next step?

  Hi there, there’s a bit more information in the fresh sticky post at the top of the forums. https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/atavist-help/ Here’s what else it says:

  You’ll be added to the Atavist team’s list and they will get in touch with you directly. Please note that this could take up to a week or more to hear back.

  You can use the export they generate to import into a WordPress.com site. To familiarize yourself with WordPress.com, we have a great guide to help you adjust to our posting interface:

  Hope that helps.
