Import Error

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hi, I’ve imported 200 posts in movable type format to my wordpress.com blog, but they’re not showing up on the frontpage. They do, however show up in back office.

    I gather when you say ‘back office’ you mean the Dashboard -> Manage -> Posts page?

    Are they tagged with categories?

    Do they have a date? It’s not in the future, is it?

    Can you pull them up for editing?

    Did you get any error or anything during the importing?

    Yes, I mean Dashboard-Manage.

    Yes, they are tagged with categories but the categories don’t show up on the front page.

    No, it’s not in the future.

    Yes, I can pull them up for editting and visit them on individual pages.

    No, there were no error.

    If you can visit them, I’m having a feeling that they’re not marked as published.

    Can you pull one up for editing and take a look under the Post Status tab along the right hand side and see what it’s marked as? I have a feeling that you’re going to Draft instead of published.

    If so, I’d send in a feedback and ask staff if they can set something up to mark them all as published.

    if not, I’m at a loss. Do the feedback and ask someone to take a look at the issue.

    Sorry couldn’t be more help but we’re volenteers with no backend access.
