  Hi there! I’m planning to move all my content from my self-hosted WordPress to a WordPress.com account. I exported and imported already and I seem to be missing at least 60+ posts. Is there a way for you to fix this for me, to ensure that all my posts get imported? I’ve re-imported several times, but to no avail. Thank you!

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

  Hi Abby,

  Can you please check your Trash here:

  Are the missing posts in there?

  Hi there! I think that did the trick, thank you! Why did they go straight to trash, though?

  Hi Abby,

  I’m not sure. Sometimes that happens with an import. It’s likely something in the code (like maybe a custom post type) that WordPress.com doesn’t recognize and doesn’t know where to put them.
