  Morning WordPress! I have 3 blogs I started a few years ago and want to start into blogging again. Is there any way I can merge the 3 blogs I have in to 1 account? Here are the blogs:
  onecitygal.wordpress.com
  onecitygalfood.wordpress.com
  onecitygaltravel.wordpress.com

  Thank you!

  Yes, you can transfer those sites to the desired account by following the steps at https://wordpress.com/support/transferring-a-site-to-another-wordpress-com-account/

  Hi Mac! Thank you for your reply! I tried the instruction provided in the link but it keeps saying I can’t transfer to the selected site. Any further help would be greatly appreciated.

  What is the WordPress.com account username you’re trying to transfer them to?

  I’ve got a couple of questions to confirm what you’re trying to do.

  1. You’re currently signed in as username “onecitygal” – what is the username of the account you are wanting to merge these blogs into?

  2. You mention merge three blogs. Are you wanting to merge all three blogs into a single blog on the account you mention in your answer to my first question above?

  Thanks!

  Hi Dean! So since Im new to this all I think I’m referencing things incorrectly. When I created my account years ago I also created pages (I believe this is what they are called as I found them listed under the pages tab). These are what I want to merge into one account. I just want to post all things on onecitygal.wordpress.com. It now makes sense why I couldn’t transfer to my email account since these were created under my own email address. So I guess my correct question is can I transfer all my content on the other pages I created to one?

  Thank you so much and sorry for any confusion as Im learning all this!

  I just want to post all things on onecitygal.wordpress.com.

  Thanks for clarifying! You want to do an Export from these sites:

  – https://onecitygaltravel.wordpress.com/
  – https://onecitygalfood.wordpress.com/

  https://wordpress.com/support/export/

  Then, import each XML file into https://onecitygal.wordpress.com/

  https://wordpress.com/support/import/

  That should take care of it! Once you do the import, I would recommend setting the travel and food sites to be private so you don’t get new traffic to those pages:

  I hope that helps!
