  I tried to import my Blogger site, but I just keep getting the same page on WordPress that doesn’t do anything. It says the file was successfully uploaded, but nothing happens after this. I want my old content on this new blog…can we not do this with a free account plan?

  Thanks.

  Hi @stefanipathout, sometimes I’ve seen this if you try to import the template rather than the blog. Can you double check to see whether that’s what’s happened here?

  (Same user, different name) It’s still not working. It still just says “Success! File uploaded.” and there’s no file there.

  What is the URL of the site you’re trying to import to?

  Ok, I have reset your importer.

  Would you please try again following https://en.support.wordpress.com/import/coming-from-blogger/ ?

  It still isn’t working. I think there’s a larger problem here.
