  Hi @ericgammen, so between the two imports, I was able to get 457 posts — 57 from 2006/02/19 to 2012/02/04, and 400 from 2006/03/02 to 2013/08/18.

  Does that sound right or are some still missing?

  There should be more starting fall 2005 from urface, but the 57 sounds right assuming that’s myface. If that’s all that can be done, it’s better than nothing :)
  Thank you so much, I appreciate your help.

  @ericgammen I hesitate to try importing these into your site until I’m sure I’ve got all of the posts, since the only other option for getting them is to delete and start over. I’ll try one more time and hope I get all of the posts. :)

  Good morning –

  I am going to take over on this thread for supernovia.

  There are 300-ish posts imported. Go to My Sites > Posts …. Take a look through the dates and let me know if you think they are all there. I did see most of them do not have a title… I’m not sure if that’s an issue with the import file/process or not so I am going to have a closer look at this.

  Hello!

  I think that’s correct that they don’t have a title. I took a look and there’s quite a bit missing. It should go back to 2005.

  I’d like to have a look at the import file. Are you willing to email that to me?

  If so, let me know. I’ll send you a note and you can reply to there directly with the file. I’ll take a closer look at it to see if there’s something awry. Once in a while this happens.

  Thanks for patience.

  Yep, I’ve received it. Just wrote back. Hang tight – my plan is to get a closer look at these today and then I’ll report back via email. This thread will be marked resolved.
