Export Blog
-
How do I export my blog content? I just purchased a domain with Bluehost and I am trying to transfer my FREE WordPress blog over to my new website. On my wordpress blog I do not see any option to export, and when I installed WordPress with BlueHost, it did not transfer over my free blog. I am extremely confused.

Are you leaving WordPress.com? Would you like to redirect yourblogname.wordpress.com (as well as all of your permalinks) to your new domain name? -
Yes, I am trying to move everything to the Bluehost domain, but I want to keep the same theme and all of my content. I guess the title of the website will just change. How do I get to the dashboard? I can’t find the tools option.

HI ,
You can get to the dashboard with this url
http://yoursitename.wordpress.com/wp-adminYou should find ” tools” if you scroll down the left side menu.
Hope that helps.

but I want to keep the same theme and all of my content.
Themes cannot transferred but there are many themes that have wordpress.ORG versions. Only content can be transferred and that’s covered here https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-to-a-self-hosted-wordpress-site/
How do I get to the dashboard? I can’t find the tools option.
Every WordPress.COM blog has a sole owner. It is the person with the WordPress.COM username account who registered the blog under that username account and a single associated email address, and who is the original Admin of the blogs registered under that username account.
You have to be logged in as Admin http://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/#administrator under the exact same username account that registered the blog to access the blog’s dashboard and navigate to Tools.

@timethief
I was just trying to give the information I know. I was not aware that I should not be following up with any posts that I initially did not post to.
Thanks -
@vijjisite
You can post into a thread you want to post into. However, I responded in this thread first and subscribed. I was waiting for kimsaysso to reply to me, so I did not appreciate getting the email from you that happens when we subscribe to a thread. Even,having to type this to you is a waste of my time that could be spent helping others. -
I am new here and learning to help on wordpress.com forums.
I appreciate the time you spend helping others and would appreciate more if you can please try to help me by being little more polite :). I am in-fact learning a lot from your posts in this forum. I have no interest in wasting your time nor mine.Thanks.
