importing a tumblr blog

  • Unknown's avatar

    i was trying to import a blog, but it was running really slow, and i got impatient and clicked the ‘disconnect from tumblr’ button (i know, i shouldnt have). I tried the process all over again, and none of the tumblr blog options are importing, but everytime i try to click the ‘import this blog’ button, a message pops up saying ‘You can only have one running import at a time. Please wait for the current one to complete.’ But nothing is importing!! (also, lesser question, if i import multiple posts, will all the posts be on my site side-by-side? or can i manage them separately?)

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

  • Hi there,

    I’ve reset the Tumblr importer for your site so you can try again, as it appears to have failed.

    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, but it could be a few days before your import is processed.

  • I also want to quickly address your other question that I missed.

    also, lesser question, if i import multiple posts, will all the posts be on my site side-by-side? or can i manage them separately?

    When you say this, can you clarify if you are referring to the placement of your blog posts on WordPress.com, after the import? This is controlled by your theme and is unrelated to your Tumblr import process.
