    Hi lhlindsay,

    Where are your old blog posts hosted? You may be able to import them.

    It is possible to import your blog content from a variety of other blogging platforms, including Medium, Blogger, Israblog, Movable Type, LiveJournal, Tumblr, Typepad, Xanga and more. To reach the import screen, simply log into your WP Admin dashboard, then go to Tools → Import, choose your platform and follow the instructions.

    Here is a support topic on how to do this:
    https://en.support.wordpress.com/import/

    If this does not work for you then you can import each post manually with copy and paste, and then you can change the date on the new blog post to match the original.

    Reply to me on here if you need anymore help.

    thanks LJ :)

    Please simply post the URL of the site that you refer to here.

    This is wordpress.COM support. We cannot answer any questions posted here accurately until we have the relevant URL and have confirmed hosting.

    We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
    (1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
    (2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM. That support is found at http://wordpress.ORG/support/
    (3) sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page. That support is found at http://jetpack.com/support/

    WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, support docs and support forums, run different theme versions of themes with the same names, and many people get confused about the two. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

    The wordpress.ORG support forums are at http://wordpress.org/support. The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/
