  Hello, I am trying to import blog posts form another wordpress site into my new wordpress site. I am able to export and import using the built-in wordpress function. However, the images in the posts show up as code, not as actual images. Thanks in advance for your help!

  Thanks @venturecreationsmedia, it looks like the old site has a plugin that is not on the new site. It may have its own separate import/export process as well.

  Also, for what it’s worth, these forums are actually for the sites hosted on our servers. Our managed hosted sites can be quite different from what you have as your own WordPress installation at another host.

  I’d recommend checking the support forum here if you need more help:

  Good luck!
