  I’m trying to import my tumblr import and it has been stuck and taking longer than about a day and a half. I’ve tried refreshing it but it seems stuck. Any suggestions?

  Due to the changes at tumblr there is currently very heavy traffic at the WordPress.com importer. I have added a modlook tag in case your import is stuck and needs resetting by them so please be patient as staff work through the backlog to reach you.

  Hi subbottomguy,

  I’ve double checked to confirm your import is indeed still queued. It didn’t cancel. But please do reconnect to your Tumblr account if you’ve disconnected it.

  As @themagicrobot mentioned, we’re processing quite a few imports from Tumblr at the moment, which is causing a backlog of imports in our system. While it may look like your import failed, it’s just in line for processing, and luckily it’s still in the queue. Please allow this to run for the next 24 hours, and if it hasn’t completed by then, update us here.

  
  @themagicrobot — appreciate your help!
