My import upload will not complete.
-
My blog won’t upload my import. I’ve tried numerous times and it will only load one or two posts, and then stop.
-
Hi there, could you please provide a link to the site from which you’re trying to do the import so I can investigate? Thanks!
-
I am trying to upload from Blogger.com. I’ve tried using your nifty import feature (it initially worked, but then it duplicated itself, so I had to delete everything & start again), and also the manual file upload.

Thanks for the link!
It looks like there are four in-progress imports running at the moment. You can see their status under Tools > Import > Blogger:
https://theblogtini.wordpress.com/wp-admin/admin.php?import=blogger
1) Import 1 from The Blogtini – the importer is waiting for you to assign an author to 400 Blogger posts. Click “Set Author” to continue the import.
2) Import 2 from Royal Gawker – click the Import button to continue the in-progress import.
3) Import 3 from AllRoyal – no posts were found.
4) Import 4 from Courtney Danielson – no posts were found.
Let me know how this goes. If we don’t succeed via this route, I can clear all current imports so we can start over using a different method.
-
When I click “set authors” and then click save it brings me to the posts page where nothing shows up. When I go back to the import page, the “set authors” button is there again.
Also, that upload for Royal Gawker has been running for DAYS now.
If you could delete everything from both blogs, cancel any running imports, and then start over that would be amazing.
-
I’ve gone ahead and stopped all in-progress imports so you can try again.
Would you mind trying the alternate method next: generate an XML or WXR export file at Blogger for The Blogtini first, and then try to import the file here?
Let me know how that goes and we can take it from there. Thanks!

Okay, I’ve started an upload of am XML file from Blogger. About how long should, in theory, the import take?
-
For a site with a substantial number of posts like yours, it can take up to 24 hours. Let me know how it goes!
-
How long should it take for something, anything, even 1 post, to show up so I know it’s working? Haha.
-
I’m going to send you an email so you can send me your export file – I’d like to do a test at this end.
-
It looks like your posts did get imported, but were later deleted. I went ahead and restored them from the trash and they’re showing on your site now. I can now see 400 published posts, 1 draft post, and 1,056 images in your media library.
If you need any further help with this import, just let me know.
