I can see the blogs but not the email attachments.......

Were you able to import the blog content? Looking forward to your reply.

I could delete and try again or is it easier/better to wait till staff have looked?

Don't delete. Please wait for awhile and see if the images manifest. If they don't then come back and type modlook into the sidebar of this thread.

The posts seem to have copied over fine but not the media attachments, is this normal or do I need to try again or do it all manually?

thanks

Do not open it or you will corrupt it.
Then import it.

However, I need to discuss certain issues on a different blog. I have set this new blog up. Can I easily move blog posts from my old blog to my new one?

My old blog is being kept open for me to discuss various items, so I just need to try and move these other posts to the new blog.

Can it be done easily?
