  Hi there,
  Note that you must open the .zip export folder you get from Xanga and import ALL of the files included in the .zip folder individually before your import will show up on WordPress.com.

  I’ll tag this thread for a Staff follow-up. Please subscribe to the thread so you are notified when they respond and please be patient while waiting.

  I see them as uploaded and in my media library but I tried insert them into a new post, but that didn’t work.

  Okay then. As this does not appear to have helped you please wait patiently for Staff to help:

  Import from Xanga

  Unfortunately Xanga does not make images part of their export file. Instead, they are links back to Xanga and will not appear in your media library.
