  I’ve tried importing twice, and have gotten a message that it was successful, but nothing is showing up on the page or in search. Is there a time limit we need to wait before other platform posts are visible, or is it supposed to happen right away?

  Thanks.

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

  I just imported today, so based on what the moderators were saying, I would have been using the “new” import system. However, I checked my blog, and still nothing is showing up…

  I do see an import attempt at http://2251miles.wordpress.com/ but it looks like the file you imported was empty.

  Would you please try requesting a new backup file from Posterous?

  I have tried requesting a new backup multiple times from multiple computers, but I’m thinking the file must still be empty because the import is completed so quickly. I have also e-mailed Posterous Support about this issue and have yet to hear anything back.

  I have sent an email to the address on your account. Would you please reply to that with the export file attached so I can take a look?

  I haven’t heard any progress (or lack of) updates, so I sent you an e-mail the other day to check in. Figured I should post on here too just to be safe.
