  I imported from movable type but seems not successful. I want to do it once again but it said the import is still in progress.

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

  I’ll tag this thread for Staff assistance and they will reset the importer for you. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting.

  Thank you. Can you also advise what the problem was when I imported last time?

  I have manually reset the importer for you, and you can try the import again.

  As to why this happens: occasionally an import may time out due to a faulty internet connection or possibly a bad transfer of some of the file contents. When this happens the import process needs to be manually stopped and reset. It’s nothing that you did or didn’t do – it just happens sometimes, particularly (but not always) with larger import files.

  If you continue to have trouble with your import, just let us know.
