Blogger to WordPress
-
I used your tool to import my blogger blog entries to wordpress and I see that all the titles, comments and tags transferred over but nothing else. IE – the entries have no bodies to them… they’re just titles and even when you click on a comment, the comments have no bodies to them either. What gives? Did I do something wrong? Help is appreciated.

Hello there,
I have flagged this thread so you get Staff help with your import issue. Please be patient while waiting. -
I’ll need to empty your blog completely so you can try again.
Did you only have imported posts on the blog, or was there preexisting content?
-
Sorry. I was out. I had one post on the blog before i imported from blogger. Then i imported and saw this issue. I then made another post direct on word press today 6/5/12. I already tried emptying everything and got the same result.
-
Ok, please try deleting the imported posts again and make sure that you empty the Trash sub-section of the Posts section in your Dashboard.
Then, try importing via the method that requires a Blogger export file, rather than the automated method.

Not sure this really worked either. When I tried to make an export file from Blogger, it simply made an RSS feed in my apple mailbox. (Which I don’t use.) So, I clicked ARCHIVE FEED and saved it to my desktop. I uploaded that file but I’m not really sure that’s right.
-
And I got a message that said WordPress would work on processing my file??? Was that right?
-
That doesn’t sound right. See this guide to export your Blogger blog: http://support.google.com/blogger/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=97416

I know. And I read this already. It doesn’t give me an option to save it as an xml file. It automatically opens up my Apple Mail and wants to make it a feed when I follow these instructions. Any ideas?

There is no file. When I click the Download Link in blogger it automatically opens Apple Mail and begins trying to save the blog as a feed. I’m not able to right click that to try and ‘save as’ since it appears in a box with the feed code. Right clicking that does nothing. I tried right clicking the Download Link but ‘save as’ is not an option. I’ve left a comment for blogger about this but I won’t hold my breath for help.

I’m a step ahead of you. I actually just tried it in Opera. It seems to have saved it to xml. Now I will see if it imports correctly. Stand by…

I think that’s working! I see posts coming over and I see they aren’t just titles and tags! Yippee! Thank you!
