transfer wordpress blog from one wordpress account to another
-
A friend of mine let me host my blog via their wordpress account, but we found we could not assign their name to their account AND my name to my blog (changing the name in one account resulted in a change to the same name in the other account), so I decided to transfer my blog out to my own wordpress.com account.
The first half of this process seemed to go well. I followed instructions I found (and which I cannot now find) for exporting the blog to my new wordpress account. Unfortunately, the email link didn’t work (it results in a failure message), though for some reason my blog’s wordpress addres shows up perfectly fine, and I cannot find where my computer saved the file on itself because I have no idea what name it filed my blog under. I’ve tried searching using every permutation of my blog’s address, just the file extension the import page suggests (xml), and exhausted everything.
I’ve been at this for a couple of hours, and I’m at a total loss as to what to do to recover the website I had before. At this point, I’m ready to accept the loss; I can rebuild the site. I’d just like to know if there’s any way at all for me to rescue it as it is (or from wherever it’s gotten lost) now.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
