Import of posts and comments from Blogger not showing up

Yesterday I imported about 190 posts from my Blogger site to WordPress. The system says it imported the data as well as all user comments. However, when I checked, not a single post’s text was imported — just the title. Does this mean I have to go in and MANUALLY copy/paste all 190 posts from Blogger as well as the comments? This so defeats my purpose of switching and, if this is the case, then I’m staying with Blogger.

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

No, it doesn’t mean that. It means you do nothing and I flag this thread for Staff attention. They you wait patiently until they assist you with this import issue.

We’ll need to completely empty your blog so you can try again.

Did you only have imported posts in it?

Ugggh….to get an idea of what my content would look like in the blog, I already began filling in posts (about 8 or so)….oh well. The imported posts along with all the corresponding photos were in it, as well as comments, which didn’t import properly either. There are also about 8 or 9 pages too. Thanks — looks like I’ll have to start over again…oh well; worse things can happen, right?!? :) Thanks.

Hello macmanx. Thanks for emptying the blog as was told by me on Aug. 6. I just reimported my blog info (posts and comments) and, once again, all posts and comments are completely empty, so I’m back to square-one.

Ok, I have emptied it again.

This time, try the more manual import method which requires you to upload a Blogger export file. Don’t user the direct importer.
