  Hi
  I have migrated my wordpress.com blog to self-hosted .org with jetpack connected.
  Comments and followers have moved across but not the historical site stats. Can these be moved across also?
  Most (but not all) of my Post IDs match on both sites for the same posts.
  (this was because most posts were through the export > import plug-in but some others I had to create again form scratch, so Post ID is different in about 18 posts out of 144).

  hope that makes sense, thanks
  Mark

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I can help you with that!

  However, please note that stats migration will only work perfectly if your post ID’s match between your WordPress.com site and your new self hosted site. If the IDs do not match, a single post will end up as two different posts in your stats. One will be the stats for the old ID and one the new. The stats cannot be combined unless the IDs are the same.

  As most of your post ID’s match, this may not be an issue for you.

  Please confirm that you understand this.

  Also, just so that there is no confusion, please post the old and new site URLs.

  Hi rootjosh,
  I confirm that I understand that stats won’t match where post IDs don’t match.

  The url for the old .com site is https://halfwayhike.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  and the new site is under halfwayhike.com (halfwayhike.com/wp-admin/)

  Thanks for your help.
