The blogs I am trying to import to are:
1.) http://insideoutstyleandfashion.wordpress.com/ and
2.) http://insideouthealthandsports.wordpress.com/.

Is there any way a staff member could empty those for me, please? So I can try again? Thank you so much.

On behalf of a blogger client, I recently moved a blog from Blogger to WP.com, where I converted the bloated categories list to tags and set up new categories. I also installed and modified a theme.

Now the blogger wants to move to WP.org. In the time since the original move, she has continued to use the Blogger site, and there are about a dozen new posts.

Should I transfer the WP.com content first, then import the most recent Blogger xml? Or do it in a different order?

Thanks so much for any help!

Let me know when you have emptied and which method is the best to proceed with the import or the go to blogger, export>upload.

Thanks.

Each attempt to import after the previous titles-only import will fail because the posts will be seen as duplicates.

I have tried importing via both methods. Each time I only get the titles and tags, but no content. I tried using the importer, then deleted them all, so then used the blogger export file and upload, but that didn't work either. Went back to the other method, but the same happened. I reset and cleared between each attempt. is someone available to sort this technical issue that clearly has something to do with wordpress back end thank you. the blog is http://ethicalsm.wordpress.com (it is set to private as I need to build it before it is live) thanks.

Please confirm the blog URL and if it's okay to empty it completely.

Not sure why so many people like WordPress - even Blogger (with all the difficulties) never gave me this much trouble.

1. Attempted to import via WordPress. Imported post titles and categories, but no body of the posts. Deleted all the posts.

2. Downloaded the .xml file from Blogger. Uploaded to WordPress. Only 7 posts showed up. Deleted them all.

3. Re-uploaded the .xml file to WordPress. No posts showed up.

What's going on?!
