  Hi, I created a blog on WordPress.Com on the morning of Friday, Dec 4. I tried to import files from a WordPress.ORG blog, and it’s taken rather longer than expected. Is there anything I can do?

  If it matters, I foolishly tried to begin the import before activating my WordPress.Com account, which for all I know may have goofed things up.

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

  Hi there,

  I have reset the importer for you. Please try importing the file again, and let me know if it still won’t work.

  I just checked and it looks like your import completed this time. Can you please confirm?

  I also noticed there’s a large number of pending comments that are actually spam (all of those mentioning SEO). Please make sure you mark those as spam rather than just deleting them, so the spam filter will learn to block them for you automatically in future.

  Let me know if you have more questions about this.
