May I also ask if you removed all unapproved comments, spam and advertising before you created the XML export file?

Hi @clarchblog, typically when we see issues like this, it’s that you’ve exported the blogger template rather than the content. Can you try exporting once more and let us know whether it goes through this time?

Thanks so much for your quick replies. Sorted now – I was being stupid & didn’t select the correct import button specific to Blogger.

@timethief if you’d like to add that template import thing as a recommendation in your replies as well, I think it’d help people out. I’ve only run into it a few dozen times over the years, but it does happen.
