  I want to migrate my blog from wordpress. I followed the FAQ instructions on exporting my entire blog and comments. WordPress generated an XML file which was only 390 KB. Is there something else I need to do to get my entire blog and comments on a file? Any ideas?

  Should be everything in that file. I know my export file in under 2 megs with nearly 700 posts.

  I followed the FAQ too, and exported http://bloggenbent.wordpress.com to an XML file which I uploaded with the RSS-import option at http://bloggenbent.dagenspolitik.se

  However, the file just contained the text – not the comments. Nor did it include any category data, as one can see.

  Yes, I got the same problem. I migrated my blog to Yahoo webhost, which supports wordpress. However, when I imported the .xml file. The category structure was disordered and there is no any comments at all. I could only see my blogs. All my pages disappeared…and I found them under blog category… Don’t know why…
