  I don’t know the answer to that. But I did read somewhere that Automattic/WordPress.com had recently acquired Atavist. A quick Google found this: https://docs.atavist.com/faq
  which says:

  So, what does this mean for you, an Atavist user? Although the precise specifics of the transition will be worked out in the upcoming weeks, the goal is to integrate Atavist features into WordPress. Our hope is to seamlessly provide the features that you’ve come to rely on along with the many advantages of WordPress’s massive scope, stability, and open-source philosophy.

  I see the modlook tag has already been added. Perhaps a staff member will know in what way it is planned to integrate the two platforms.

  Thanks magic, I will cut and past Atavist stories needed for convertion in the short term then. I have read everything I could find on their site and yours – too early… Can’t wait for the conversion tools to arrive.

  Hi there,

  We don’t have an importer for Atavist. Do you have a site on Atavist that you’re trying to migrate here? If so, Atavist recently became part of WordPress.com, and we are currently working with the staff from Atavist to make migration of existing sites from there to WordPress.com possible.

  Please see the announcement on Atavist’s website here:

  If you have any questions, it’s best to email them directly at the email address indicated on that page.
