Lost followers after moving site
-
Hey I recently moved my site so it can be self hosted. I found even after transferring subscribers that it only transferred the subscribers from WordPress but not my email followers. Is there a way to fix it?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Did you use this process outlined at https://en.support.wordpress.com/moving-a-blog/moving-your-subscribers/#wordpress-com-to-self-hosted-site?

Hi there,
You have six different WordPress.com sites in your account. From which one are you trying to migrate your followers? I need the URL, please, not just the title.

We had a look, and the site’s logs show that the subscribers were transferred to the new site.
Is there any chance you might have accidentally removed those subscribers via My Site ->People?
Can you remember/do you know any of the email addresses that used to be subscribed?
-
I’m pretty sure I didn’t remove them. Idon’t know the people who subscribed but I do see that on publicoutcast.com only 20 subscribers transferred and all of them are from wordpress. The rest of them I don’t see.
-
Our logs show that 18 WordPress.com and 12 email subscribers were transferred, but we see only 1 email subscriber on your site. But without knowing who the missing subscribers are there’s not much we can do to track them down, I’m afraid. We’ve never come across subscribers going missing like this.
