  My import sat all night and nothing changed, so I cleared the data and attempted to start the import over again, assuming it was my internet’s fault. However, wordpress is telling me I can’t have 2 imports running at the same time. Clearing the data should have stopped the original import.

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

  Are you importing from tumblr? 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 your importer themselves.

  Hi –

  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.
