Importing entire blog?
-
I’m moving here from blogger. Is there a way to move my previous blog entries with me? I’ve copied the most recent one so see how to do that — but is there a way to backdate posts so they show up as history? If not, is there another way to do it?

It should copy over your posts with the posted date fine. I’ve not heard of any issues regarding that.
To import Dashboard -> Import. It’ll scrap it right from your old Blogger site. Do remembere to have your Blogger CSS from your theme though as it’ll reset it to a readable format.
Hope this helps,

Is it possible to import from another wordpress blog such as blogsome (nice site but I need a host that is closer to me)
-
“Closer to you”, huh? :)
Please do a search for RSS2MT. Someone wrote a pretty detailed walkthru on how to do this.
Good luck,

Thanks for the answers — I now have one more question.
I had two blogs on blogger. Is it possible to import both of them into the same blog here? Now that I can use categories, I’d rather have them meshed together.

I’ve been told that you can import on top of a blog that’s already been imported. What I would do is set up a second blog somewhere with a garbage name that no one will want (ie: auiofhwejka.wordpress.com) and try running the import as a test. If it works, go ahead and delete the test blog. I have not tryed the import function myself so I can’t really give you an answer. You might even want to submit a feedback from your DashBoard and see if you can get an offical answer.
Good luck,
