  Kicked off an import from my posterous blog at gripnrip.posterous.com and WP only imported posts up to May 2011? I have about 550 posts but it only got 419?

  Please help!

  Seems this isnt a new problem? Any idea when this will be sorted?

  Would you mind trying the import again?

  It won’t duplicate existing content and should pick up what it missed.

  Would you mind opening another blog under your account just to check? You can easily delete it later if it doesn’t work out.

  That has worked, if it helps the new blog is awgm.wordpress.com and I did exactly the same as before.

  Thanks!

  Excellent!

  If you’d like, we can clear out the blog you really want it on (provided it only had imported posts), then you can just export and import the content between the two blogs via the Tools section.
