  This depends on the size on the XML import file, but sometimes the importer do get stuck. I’m tagging this thread so a Staff can have a look and help you further. Please be patient while waiting.

  Rule of thumb – anything over 24 hours is bad news and it is time to ask the staff for help in resetting the importer

  Could you please send the import file to us by e-mail? You can send it to this e-mail address.

  Otherwise try to import the file again at https://rettnirgrimsong.wordpress.com/wp-admin/admin.php?import=wordpress

  Thank you.
