    I cannot import my website from wix to WordPress. When I go to the tools and import tab there is no option to import anything? It says if it’s not available then to download a importer plug in but I can’t find anything on there either?

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

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

    Hi @codyrosswork9 – are you using these steps? Also, to be clear, are you importing into codyrosswork9.wordpress.com ? If you are importing into your own DIY instance of WordPress, you’ll need a different setup:

    WP
    Import a Website » Import from Wix
    in WordPress.com Support

    Our Wix Importer is a quick way to move your content. All you have to do is provide your Wix site’s web address (called a URL). When the import is complete, you’ll have a site that’s pre-filled with your content and ready to be your new home on the web. Import to a New Site If you’re just getting started with WordPress.com or don’t want to affect an existing WordPress.com site, the quickes

    A few important notes:

    • This imports content only. Layout and design elements will need adjusting.
    • Sometimes Wix can be a bit finicky about allowing you to migrate your content.

    If you run into issues, depending on the site, it may be easier to just manually copy your content over a page at a time and adjust the template to your liking, since you’ll likely want to adjust layouts and design anyway. Let us know if that’s what you’re facing, and we can advise. Or, we also have a team that can take care of migration and any design adjustments for you.
