Problem Uploading Old Xanga XMLs Separately

  • Unknown's avatar

    I uploaded two xml files separately, thinking I was following directions properly (uploading my old Xanga site). But now my blog doesn’t show up properly. It has only been a few minutes, though. Do I just need to wait, or is there a way to start over and upload them both at the same time?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    I’ll tag this thread for a Staff follow-up and they will reset the importer for you. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting.

    For instructions on how to do a Xanga import, please see: http://en.support.wordpress.com/import/import-from-xanga/

    Note that you must open the .zip export folder you get from Xanga and import ALL of the files included in the .zip folder individually.

    If you continue to have trouble with your import, please try a different browser. You might also try the WordPress importer rather than the Xanga-specific importer.

    Thank you very much, timethief. It turns out I did do it right. I was expecting all the formatting/coloring/images to be the same, but I’m guessing the import isn’t that specific. I’m just glad the content was able to be recovered. I can fine tune it later.

    I removed the tag for Staff as it appears your are well underway now. Best wishes.
