  Hi there,

  What is the URL of your Tumblr site? Is it still accessible online so we can visit?

  I see in your account activity you seem to import from Tumblr frequently (I count a total of 300+ import operations since you opened your WordPress.com site last year) so is it the case that you have had this issue all along?

  Or have you been able to successfully import from Tumblr in the past, but are no longer able to when you try now? Thanks for the additional info!

  I do import frequently because Tumblr keeps marking my food posts as ADULT and blocking them. So I keep the WordPress one as the REAL one and tumblr because I’m used to the format.

  The url is https://chronic-mastication.tumblr.com/

  I have reset your importer.

  Would you please try again?

  No such luck, but I’ll clear things out and restart and try everything I can on my end.

  Thank you.

  I’m sorry to post this again, but I’ve done everything on my end that I can and the import is still running.

  I do import a lot because, for some reason, tumblr marks my food posts as adult all. the. time.

  The url of the tumblr blog is : https://chronic-mastication.tumblr.com/

  The blog to which I import is : https://chronicmastication.home.blog/

  It is where I want to keep my food blog, but I have too many posts queued and drafted on tumblr to abandon tumblr completely yet.

  Hi there,

  I’ve merged your post into this existing thread. Please just continue replying here instead of creating a new thread every time.

  I don’t see any in-progress Tumblr import on your WordPress.com site. If the import is shown as running on your end, it might be an issue with your browser.

  Delete all browser cookies for both WordPress.com and Tumblr, and clear your browser cache. Does it still show the import as running if you log in after doing that?

  Thank you.

  And, yes, it does still show it after I did that.

  Do you mean that the import got stuck or was it succsessfull?

  The import got stuck, then it stopped importing, and now it’s importing non-stop again.

  I have no idea what’s up. I am not trying to break things. I just want to save the food blog I made that tumblr keeps trying to block, stop, and censor.

  I have reset the importer again, fingers crossed it works this time.

  That seems to have worked. I’m not going to attempt another import for a few months.
