  Hello, I’ve like 500 posts here (with other user acount) and I wanna move my blog to a personal hosting. XML generated by WordPress.com weight is 1,58mb and WordPress.org leaves you up to 2mb, so that is fine. Problem is, when I import the XML file, it just imports up to a date, it imports up to July.

  Any ideas on how to solve this? Its a Linux Server and folder uploads is chmodded 777.

  Greetings.

  Hmm, this sounds like a problem with WordPress.org software rather than WordPress.com. Why don’t you try asking over at the WordPress.org forum?

  I’m experiencing the same problem. My export file contains all my old blog entries (until Dec 2007), however it only imports the posts up to June 28, 2007. I tried it twice. No luck. Any advise?

  Since you are importing into the software from .org, your best bet on an answer is over at the .org forum at http://wordpress.org/support. The software here is different, and they may have some little “inside” fixes that we are unfamiliar with.
