  As WP team haven’t replied yet, was wondering if anyone else out there could help?

  I am having an issue exporting my images and featured images from my .com site (verticaleatingdotcom.wordpress.com/) to my new .org version : http://198.46.91.105/~vertic23/

  None of the featured images are coming over and are about 300 images light.

  Really worried about losing all my content.

  Can anyone help?

  This link will get you in the right direction. I also pulled the information below from the export link.

  Note: This will ONLY export your posts, pages, comments, categories, and tags; uploads and images may need to be manually transferred to the new blog. The current version of the WordPress.org installation gives you the option to import uploaded files, but the blog you are importing from must be live and serving images properly in order for it to work. So, do not delete your blog until after media files have successfully been imported into the new blog.

  If you are planning to export your content to another blog platform, it’s best to download and save your images from your WordPress.com Media Library before trying to import/upload them into the new blog.

  Still done that but only 397 of 680 images are coming across. I have export /imported 3 times now as well

  Seems like lots of people have this issue. Is there a fix?

  If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there and receive advice from WordPress.ORG bloggers.
