Importing a Tumblr blog

    Hi, a couple days ago I tried to import my Tumblr but it didn’t seem to work (most likely due to spotty Internet connection on my end), so I followed instructions to cancel the import and disconnect from Tumblr. However, when I tried again today, the site informed me that I can only import one blog at a time – yet I’m pretty sure my original import request didn’t process. How do I go about fixing this?

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

    Hi there,

    I’ve double checked to confirm your import is still queued. It didn’t cancel. But please do reconnect to your Tumblr account if you’ve disconnected it, as that could be preventing it from starting.

    We’re processing quite a few imports from Tumblr at the moment, which is causing a backlog of imports in our system. While it may look like your import failed, it’s just in line for processing, and luckily it’s still in the queue. At this point I’m not able to give an estimate on how long it might take to catch up with the backlog, though.
