  Hello WP team!

  I’m trying to import posts from my xanga and have imported some files – my last import was in late 2014 and now am trying to import more, although when I go to ‘import’ from ‘manga’ the message that shows up is:

  ‘Processing…

  We’re processing your import now and will send you an email when it’s all done. If you don’t hear from us within 24 hours, please contact support, and we’ll get everything fixed. ‘

  – which is the same message I saw in 2014. Wondering how I can continue to import my posts!

  Thank you!

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

  You only need to wait for 24 hours before posting here for help.

  Where is the export file from please?
  How large is the XML file?

  Sometimes the importer gets stuck and Staff have to reset it.
  If the file is large Staff may have to do the import.

  This thread with modlook for Staff help. Please subscribe to it so you are notified when they respond and be patient while waiting. To subscribe look in the sidebar of this thread, find the subscribe to topics link and click it.

  Hi there,

  I have deleted the import job. Can you please try running the import again?

  If it fails again, please let us know and we can investigate further for you. Many thanks!
