  Hi there,

  I went ahead and reset the importer, so you should now be able to continue importing your site! Let me know if there’s anything else you need.

  Hi there, thank you so much for all of your help. I am able to import but now it gets stuck again. I just don’t understand why I can’t seem to complete my import.

  Xanga imports are generally rough. From what I understand, the way that the export code is written for Xanga blogs, a lot of conversion has to be done on our side which can cause the imports to get stuck.

  The good news is that your imports seem to be working, I noticed that more posts were added to your blog. So while this may be a pain it should be able to be completed eventually.

  I went ahead and cleared up your importer for you and you should be able to continue now.
