Tumblr Import stuck
-
Hi there. People have imported several hundreds of posts from Tumblr to WordPress in just minutes, but my import has been stuck for a while now. Can someone help me?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there!
I’ve reset the importer so you can try again. Hopefully, this time it works as expected. If you still run into issues, let us know here or via https://wordpress.com/help/contact.

It’s still stuck! There are 3 blogs on my Tumblr – is that why it is stuck? I don’t see an option to import just one of them. The tool tries to import all 3 at a time. Nonetheless, it is still stuck

Hmmm — just to clarify, did you restart it and it got stuck again, or was it still just stuck on that setting even after we cleared it? I’ve just tried a reset once more for good measure, but please let us know.
Also, can you share why you’re importing the content? Sometimes we’ll see folks importing content from Tumblr to WordPress.com in case something happens to Tumblr, but we bought Tumblr a few years ago. -
Restarted it. It’s still stuck. I’ve disconnected from Tumblr and restarted it multiple times over now. I still have the same problem!
I’m importing content from Tumblr into my WordPress account to consolidate everything here. I had a bunch of Tumblr blogs – because I couldn’t post by category there. Here on WordPress we can post by category, and I’d rather everything her in one place.
I hope I don’t have to go back to several years of posts and bring them into WordPress one by one manually. That would be a painful task!

It looks like there’s a bug in the importer at the moment. While I don’t have an ETA as to when this will be fixed, our development team is looking into this now.
