  Hi,

  Could you please share the URL (domain name) of the website you need assistance with so that we can better assist you? Is your current site hosted with WordPress.com?

  Hi. The current url is killtheboredom.co and I’m using Wix. I have my old exported file of my old website from when I was on wordpress.org. I would have to share the file with you as well right?

  In case you wish to use/import .SQL files as well, you would need to purchase the Business plan subscription here at WordPress.com. Anything below the Business plan would not give you database and file access. Above Business, you can copy over your database manually with the use of plugins or phpMyAdmin: https://wordpress.com/support/phpmyadmin-and-mysql/#can-i-upload-sql-files-what-is-the-file-size-limit – and will be able to import the plugin/theme files through direct sFTP access: https://wordpress.com/support/sftp/

  You don’t need to share these files, as I don’t actually have access to your files/database, but you can learn more on the internet about working with SQL database files (for example here: https://docs.phpmyadmin.net/en/latest/import_export.html) and you can also read more about moving files using sFTP here: https://wordpress.com/support/sftp/#getting-started-with-sftp

  Hope that helps!
