  Hi, I have exported the content and media from my wordpress site and have downloaded the relevant .zip files. However, when I try to import these files into my new site, I get the following error message: ‘This does not appear to be a WXR file, missing/invalid WXR version number. Try another file or contact support.’

  Any ideas?

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

  Hi there,

  Unzip the file and upload the .xml file for importing. This will do the trick.

  If this still doesn’t work or you have more questions, just let me know and I’ll be happy to help!
