  We migrated to a self-hosted version of WordPress and noticed our subscribers aren’t ported over with us. Is there anything we can do other than contact them individually and ask them to subscribe to the blog all over again?

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

  Marvelous support! Thank you! One last question: there is a small handful of folks who are listed twice as they re-subscribed then were ported over as well. Any way to delete the duplicates or will there be no impact?

  If they subscribe with an e-mail address that’s already on the list, there should be no impact.

  Feel free to contact us if you have any other questions.
