    Where’s the administrator control button gone and why i have to break up my import files into millions of pieces, am i supposed to upload every single bit singularly and why are some of the personal manipulating my posts, i change my password regularly?

  • Where’s the administrator control button gone

    We’re combining the Calypso and WP-Admin sidebars into one that’s consistent across both dashboards. This should help reduce confusion when navigating between Calypso and WP-Admin features.

    Where there’s a duplicate feature on WordPress.com, we’re letting you choose whether to default to Calypso or WP-Admin, so please take a moment to go to https://wordpress.com/me/account and set your link preference there. Here’s a screenshot: https://wordpress.com/support/account-settings/#dashboard-appearance

    If something feels off, please add details to this thread, letting us know what you clicked on, what you expected, and what happened instead. If you can share a bit about your typical use, too, that would be helpful.

    why i have to break up my import files into millions of pieces

    You shouldn’t have to, where specifically are you importing from?

    why are some of the personal manipulating my posts

    I’m not sure what you mean, would you please ellaborate?

    i change my password regularly

    You can change your password at any time from https://wordpress.com/me/security

    I was specifically looking for the blogrolllinkentries in wp-admin!

    I am importing old wp exports from my original site but with changed wp domainnames!

    I am suspicious because when i previously uploaded exports from my site and it still worked there was a person as contributer marked which i never invited and who i don’t know, other then the person i know i invited!

    Waht the what? You offer a media export but not a media import! What’s that bull?

    @marcmanx

    now even the wp.com url doesn’t work!

  • I am importing old wp exports from my original site but with changed wp domainnames!

    What was the URL of the old site? If it’s still online, you can just change it without export/import: https://wordpress.com/support/changing-site-address/

    what’s that bull with the one year upgrade plan that lasts only from may 28 th until april 28th

    If you include a domain registration with your plan, auto-renew is attempted a month earlier, so there’s enough time to deal with any problems (like an expired or declined card) without losing the domain.

    The term is officially still from May 28 to May 28 the following year.

    Waht the what? You offer a media export but not a media import! What’s that bull?

    If you’re importing between WordPress sites, the media exporter is not needed. You’ll only need the standard import file, and all attached media will automatically be transferred over.

    now even the wp.com url doesn’t work!

    The only WordPress.com site under your account is https://slowtemplelovecozmicpurplehealing.wordpress.com which is online, publicly accessible, and functioning properly.

    my dear staff-blorbo i will try to change the urlnames while importing. thank you but i can’t acces my homepage it says domain is parked maybe because i cancelled the bought non wp domain! Can you help!

  • Hey there,

    Are you still seeing that domain parked message? It is no longer showing on my end, so I would clear your browser cache if you are still seeing it.

    thank you very much yall, it is allright now i just have to try out the thingy withe imports

  • Unknown's avatar

    staff-blorbo i will elaborate my import problem now:

    i exported some content exports while the wp domain had another name, meanwhile i changed the wp domain but can’t import the old wp name domain exports it says multiple imports not possible or something to that extent.

    How can i fix this problem my dear!

    Once you change the “example” part of example.wordpress.com, the old address will stop working. Visitors will not be redirected to your new site address. The old address will not be available for use again.

  • i exported some content exports while the wp domain had another name, meanwhile i changed the wp domain but can’t import the old wp name domain exports it says multiple imports not possible or something to that extent.

    The site address shouldn’t affect the import itself. As I understand, you’re trying to import an XML file from an old WordPress.com site to a new one, is that right?
    Could you share the exact steps you’re taking together with a screenshot of the error you see? You can upload the image to your media library or use an online tool for that (such as https://snipboard.io/) and paste the link into your reply.

    Visitors will not be redirected to your new site address. The old address will not be available for use again.

    Right, this is what will happen if you change the free subdomain to a different one.

    I klick on tools then import them select the wordpress importer then i klick un upload and try to import a zip file when it says upload zipfile or similar the following error message appears:

    Simultaneous imports are not permitted.
    Stelle sicher, dass du eine gültige WordPress-Exportdatei im XML- oder ZIP-Format verwendest. ?

  • @cosmicpurpleloveslowtemple thank you. From our side we can see there is an import running. If you would like, we can cancel and clear that. Please confirm.

    Also: please refer you to our Best Practices and Community Standards post. editing to clarify: You’ll have a better experience in our forums if you do not put several issues in a single thread. I’d avoid “bumping” your thread with extra replies, too, and just wait for a response instead. Be sure you’re working within our community standards as well. Thank you!

    @supernovia

    could you please cancel ALL running imports! confirmation and cancellation!

  • Unknown's avatar

    Thanks for confirming! I’ve cancelled any existing imports that were running. Note that this won’t remove any data that may have been imported already.

    I hope that helps! Let us know if you still have trouble after running your imports one at a time.

    Could you please again cancel any existing running imports, because i started an import and it halted for about an hour or slowed down then i went to sleep and someone shut down my pc by remotebackdoor! So now i’m not sure if i can again import files!
    Thank you!
