Import problem…duplicate pages…only one set in admin
-
Desperate for help. Newbie that is ready to pull her hair out. All I wanted to do was transfer to wordpress.org from worpress.com. I have yet to complete this after hours of research, setting up a host….blah blah blah. In the meantime, I exported my wp.com site and when I thought I was in the wp.org site (which I was not and have yet to figure out how to create) I imported the wp.com export file that back to the wp.com site. So I exported and imported on the same .com account if that makes sense. Now I have duplicate pages and when I go into admin to delete the duplicates there is only one set available. When I try to delete even the one set and update the page it makes no changes at all and maintains duplicate pages. This has turned into such a nightmare consuming hours of my day. I wish I had just set it up on .org originally. Please help me. I really don’t want to delete the site and start anew as I really want to maintain my followers, comments, etc. cuppasunshineandsugar.com

That being said you can easily and quickly delete duplicate pages yourself rather than waiting in the queue for Staff.

Thank you. Yeah I tried the bulk delete and they just won’t budge. I hope support will just get the duos outta there.

Still waiting for staff support help/fix on this. How long does it usually take? Site looks silly with duplicate pages showing. I double checked to see if in dashboard/admin it would now show double sets of pages so that I could try to delete the duplicate pages, but still only one set showing in there but on actual site view duplicates are there.
