  I’m importing from http://whatareyouwearingtomhardy.tumblr.com
  to http://whatareyouwearingtomhardy.home.blog

  It’s been … I think about 72 hours plus and it says “in progress”

  I’m aware there’s a backlog, and there’s really no rush, but I wanted to follow directions and start a post anyway.

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

  Hi there,

  I don’t see any running Tumblr imports on whatareyouwearingtomhardy.home.blog.

  Please try again, or let me know if you’re trying to import to a different site. If some posts have already imported they will be skipped by the importer during your next attempt, so they should not be duplicated.

  If it seems to take long, please be patient and don’t try cancelling the process yourself – we’re experiencing a high volume of imports from Tumblr at the moment causing a backlog of pending imports in our system. The imports are being run in the order they are submitted.

  At this point we’re unable to give an estimate on how long it might take to catch up with the backlog, though – it’s taking longer than anticipated, but the importer is running and will hopefully get to your site soon.

  Hi — The day after I posted, the import completed! This is resolved now.

  You maybe couldn’t find it since I’ve changed the address to waywth.wordpress.com. I went for whatareyouwearingtomhardy.wordpress.com but it said that was already taken?

  Thank you so much for your help.

  I went for whatareyouwearingtomhardy.wordpress.com

  It’s reserved by another username that was deleted (deactivated). If that was you and you still want that address, let us know. We’ll reach out via email to sort it out.

  Supernovia — It was almost certainly me as I was flailing while learning how to change my free URL on wordpress, haha. I would love that address, yes. It’s our Tumblr name and I think the extended version might bring in more people than the initialism. Thanks! Hit me up on email?
