Need help rebuilding.
-
Hello,
I’m trying to build a WP site for our Gaming Group. Our Previous Site ran for 5 years without issue before a major outage by our Service Provider killed it. They had a Server Farm go down, then when they attempted to ‘Rebuild’ our site and get it going again, it started working sort of, but with a 60-90 second load time on every single page. Something they never seemed to be able to reproduce (shock) and then were unwilling to help with. We have since left them.
Now I tried to rebuild this with a fresh WP.org installation but imported 5 years of content from a single WP import XML file, always seemed to kill it. It would get about 1/2 the content but after about 3 hours of importing, it would usually fail. I chock that up to a server timeout. Which doesn’t surprise me…. the XML file is nearly 9 MB’s Huge and always seemed to time out, which I don’t blame them for.
Now I’m wondering if it would be possible to rebuild this as a WP.com site, and if so could I send this Import File to WP staff in hopes they would be able to import it in a way that wouldn’t timeout?
Also we had come up with highly modified theme that we wanted to use, and wonder if that would be usuable as well?
