  How do I import another blog without publishing it immediately? I want to import my old Blogspot blog, but I do not want to immediately publish all 200+ entries on the day of import. I want the imported entries to be initially unpublished so I can edit their formatting and otherwise improve them over time before publishing them on my new blog.

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

  The only way to do that is to set the entire blog as private, then go through them all via the Bulk Editor to set each post to Private, then turn the blog public again. Then you can set the posts to public one by one.

  When you say “the blog,” you mean the Blogspot blog, correct?

  No, I mean the WordPress.com one.
