Importfile larger than 3M
-
I want to import an WP-XML-File by the size of 5,5 M. WP.com insists that it is not possible to import files larger than 3 M. What can I do?

The way to do this is to split the file into chunks no more that 1.7mb for a good result.
You open the file in text editor (on Windows, use jujuedit) and save out between closing and opening statements:
</some-statement>
<———————————split here
<some-other-statement>then save each one as 1.xml, 2.xml, 3.xml
Work on a copy – keep the original file safe!
But….. we have an import problem right now so you’ll have to hold off for a short time.

Just for reference, the ‘statement’ bit that Mark alludes to is usually an ‘item’ tag. The file is divided into sections by item tags and everything for a post is contained within those item tags.
