Tumblr Import – Wrong Blogs?
-
Hi there,
I’m trying to import multiple tumblr blogs to different WordPress accounts to better organize myself.
I set up the first import to my first account and all seems fine, but as I’m trying to import the second blog to my second account (this account), the import page is displaying the blog pertaining to the first account, instead of the account I just linked to on tumblr.
I’ve cleared my cache and everything else, and it still displays the first blog associated for the first account.
Help?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
I tried to see if I could set this up from another computer in case some sort of cache was blocking me.
It’s still not working.
I have a blog at theraddoctor.wordpress.com which is trying to import the blog the-rad-doctor from tumblr. As far as I can see on that page, it’s importing the proper blog.
This current blog that I’m trying to adapt is ahordeoftrouble.wordpress.com which I had wanted to import the tumblr ahordeoftrouble into, but when I look at the import page it displays the-rad-doctor information still. I’ve disconnected tumblr from it and reconnected, gone onto tumblr itself and disconnected wordpress from there as well, and it still continues to link the-rad-doctor to it.
What is going on? What am I doing wrong here?

Hi there,
I’ve double checked to confirm your import is still queued on ahordeoftrouble.wordpress.com. It didn’t cancel. But please do reconnect to your Tumblr account if you’ve disconnected it, as that could be preventing it from starting.
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. At this point I’m not able to give an estimate on how long it might take to catch up with the backlog, though.

Hi kokkieh,
My concern wasn’t whether or not the import was queued, it was that it was the wrong blog was being linked to it on the page despite logging into a different tumblr completely and having the app attached there.
In fact, I haven’t even attempted to import the blog because it’s the wrong one. I understand that you guys are inundated with requests from tumblr, but that is the completely wrong concern here. But it’s good to know that your copy-paste skills are strong in your replies!

Ah, I missed your mention of the third site involved.
If you have Tumblr connected to your account, it will list all Tumblr blogs in your account in the importer on all your sites.
If the other Tumblr belongs to a different Tumblr account, you’ll need to completely disconnect, log into the other Tumblr account, and then reconnect to that account from your WordPress.com account.
You won’t be able to do that while the import on theraddoctor.wordpress.com is still queued, though, as disconnecting that Tumblr account will cause that Tumblr import to fail.
