  Hello,

  I am in the process of moving my Tumblr to WordPress but after taking all the necessary steps to import into WordPress, I noticed that not all posts were imported (only 2 months back). When I tried to import the Tumblr again, multiple posts showed today’s date and were not in chronological order. Please help!

  Thank you!

  Did your blog only have imported posts? If so, I’d like to completely empty the blog so you can try again.

  Thank you for your prompt response.

  Yes, it only had imported content. Unfortunately, I deleted the entire blog in my eagerness to fix the problem. I would love to start over, using the same name.

  Your help is greatly appreciated!

  I’m sorry, but deleted blogs cannot be restored or reused. Deleting a blog is permanent and the name cannot be used again. There are several warnings about this on the Tools -> Delete Site page and in the help pages, and you are required to confirm the deletion by email.
