My Tumblr import

  • Unknown's avatar

    So I started an import like two or so days ago and I think it may have stalled in some form. I do understand that you guys are having an influx of imports as Tumblr has caused people to panic. As long as I can get my blog imported before the 17th I’ll be good. Thank you!

    The sticky at the top of this page has been amended today. The original 24 hours wait message has been crossed out and it now says:

    At this point we are unable to provide an estimate on how long it might take for queued imports to complete. Our importer is processing thousands of posts a minute, but the backlog is very big so please be patient – it might be a few days before your import will start once it’s queued.

    I took a look at the sticky post…The reason why I believe my import is stalled is that it will get one post imported then a few seconds later it goes back to 0 posts imported

  • Hi there,

    I’ve double checked to confirm your import is still queued. It didn’t get stuck. But please do reconnect to your Tumblr account if you’ve disconnected it, as that could be preventing it from starting.

    We’re processing quite a few imports from Tumblr at the moment, which is causing a backlog of imports in our system. While it may look like your import failed, it’s just in line for processing, and luckily it’s still in the queue. At this point I’m not able to give an estimate on how long it might take to catch up with the backlog, though.

    I haven’t disconnected my tumblr. Does it show as disconnected?

  • If you haven’t disconnected it, then it’s fine. We’re just asking people to check that just in case – we can’t see that info from our end, but many people did mention disconnecting, and that can cause the import to fail if you’ve done it.

    I got an email saying it had been imported. Thanks for the help!
