  When I try to import some blogposts from my old blog using https://ecohorizons.wordpress.com/wp-admin/admin.php?import=wordpress

  , I get this message (We’re processing your import now and will send you an email when it’s all done. If you don’t hear from us within 24 hours, please contact support, and we’ll get everything fixed.) I have been getting this message for more than 24 hours.

  How can I restart the import?

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

  We seem to be having the same problem. I posted this https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/why-is-my-import-from-a-wordpress-file-taking-so-long?replies=1#post-2023997 just now.
  I hop we get an answer soon.

  Good luck.

  This isn’t a problem per se. It’s along weekend and the importer/exporter lineup is probably lengthy. I’ll tag this thread for a Staff follow-up. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting.

  @ecohorizons

  I went ahead and restarted the importer for you so you should be able to give this another crack here:

  https://ecohorizons.wordpress.com/wp-admin/admin.php?import=wordpress

  Can you let me know if the next time is successful? Also, could you let me know how big the blog you’re importing was (how many posts/media files)?

  @lucasvieites – I’ve reset the importer for you as well. Can you give it another try?
