  I’ve been trying to import from my tumblr accounts. After a few hours trying looks like it’s not going to happen as no posts have been imported.
  Any kind of help would be very appreciated.
  Thanks.

  See: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/tumblr-imports/
  Due to the changes at tumblr there is currently heavy traffic at the WordPress.com importer so please be patient as staff work through the backlog. They need to reset the importer themselves.

  Good morning –

  I’ve reset the Tumblr importer for your site so you can try again.

  If it seems to take long, please be patient and don’t try cancelling the process yourself – we’re experiencing a high volume of imports from Tumblr at the moment causing a backlog of pending imports in our system. The imports are being run in the order they are submitted.

  If the new import doesn’t complete within 24 hours, please let us know.

  Please read over this page: https://en.support.wordpress.com/mature-content/

  Hello. Thank you for the attempt resetting the import from Tumblr. Sadly after trying again, import is not ruining.
  Any other option?
  Greetings.

  I’ve double checked and the job status is still queued for your import. Please verify that the Tumblr blog is connected to WordPress.com. That will prevent the process from starting / cause it to fail.

  In this case, the import is just waiting in line. I’m sorry for the delay, thing are just backed up with the huge influx of Tumblr blogs being imported.
