  Old Blog – http://www.Maggiescrochet.com/crochet (subfolder)
  Moved MaggiesCrochet.com contents to Shopify.com
  WordPress blog stuck in old site “crochet” folder
  We have crochet123.com pointed to the old maggiescrochet.com site
  blog is accessible at crochet123.com/crochet – pics and theme broken
  Goal
  export blog from old host
  import to new url maggiescrochetblog.com on wordpress.com premium account.
  I don’t want to have to manually copy past 190 posts. If this is the only way I need to know ASAP so I can get it done.
  Thank you
  Maggie

  The blog you specified at http://www.maggiescrochet.com does not appear to be hosted at WordPress.com.

  This support forum is for blogs hosted at WordPress.com. If your question is about a self-hosted WordPress blog then you’ll find help at the WordPress.org forums.

  If you don’t understand the difference between WordPress.com and WordPress.org, you may find this information helpful.

  If you forgot to include a link to your blog, you can reply and include it below. It’ll help people to answer your question.

  That is not a free hosted WordPress.com blog. You are posting to the wrong support forum. We do not provide support at WordPress.COM for any installs of WordPress.ORG software. We provide support only for free hosted WordPress.COM blogs being hosted right here on this multiuser blogging platform.

  WordPress.com and WordPress.org have different log-in and different versions of themes with same names.

  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.

  I hope you are crystal clear on the differences between WordPress.COM blogs and WordPress.ORG installs, such as the fact that you cannot have Shopify or indeed any shopping cart on a free hosted WordPress.com blog.
