  After downloading the .zip files and extract the .xml files for upload, the files are not recognized by the import functions.

  Other users have reported that when this has happened, changing browsers or trying the general “WordPress” importer tool rather than the Xanga-specific one has worked for them. Please let me know if you try both of these and you still cannot import your files.

  Also, for further instructions on how to do a Xanga import, please see:

  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.

  I have been using IE as the browser, tried Firefox too, and yes, xanga specific importer has been always used but with no success. Thanks for looking into this.

  Let me know if you can import the files using the WordPress importer in Firefox or IE, or if that isn’t working either.
