So, google knol told me to migrate to wordpress annotum, « export file requested

    So, google knol told me to migrate to wordpress annotum; meanwhile wordpress insists « export file requested », never getting to « export file generated ».

    Is my migration blocked by border patrol?

    Most of the instructions on each website are far beyond my comprehension.

    Thank You,

    The blog I need help with is altacaliferne.wordpress.com.

    I've got the same problem. I can download my Knols to a file, but I can't transfer my 269 articles to annotum. I tried it several times. The theme of my wordpress-website has changed to the annotum theme and I have to reinstall my widgets :-(

    When you ask a question in these forums, please either link your username to your blog under Users->Profile or give us a direct link, starting with http. It gets answers faster.

    For the OP: is the problem at Google Knol? It sounds like it's not generating the export file in the first place, so you have nothing to import. We can't help with issues on Google's side.

    This is all we volunteers in the forum know: http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2011/11/22/google-knol-wordpress-annotum/

    First, set the theme to annotum. Then try the import. If your Knol export is very large, you may have to break it up into chunks to import it.

    That does not match any of the options.

    The only link is:

    « Export your knols to Annotum on WordPress.com. »,

    which links as:

    < https://en.wordpress.com/signup?knol=true >,

    & the only choices are the default of

    « Annotum Base »

    or

    « Annotum Sans ».

    I do have no idea of the difference;

    but, when attempting a new function,
    I, typically, try the default,
    unless I have a specific objection.

    There are no size options;

    a google registration is required to see.

    There is « Create a new WordPress.com siteorSelect one of your existing WordPress.com sites »,

    which should paste as « Create a new WordPress.com site or Select one of your existing WordPress.com sites ».

    My Knol-articles are in a file now. The transfer to a file, the export is possible.

    Is it possible to import automatically my articles from a file to annotum?

    There are only jpeg, gif and firefox document files in the file with the knol-article. There is a possiblity to import files in wordpress. Which one have I to choose:

    Blogger
    Blogroll
    Israblog
    LiveJournal
    Movable Type and TypePad
    Posterous
    WordPress
    Yahoo! 360

    Hi everyone,

    We volunteers are completely unfamiliar with the process for bringing knol over to wordpress, and know just what was in the announcement. What I've done though is to tag this thread for staff attention and hopefully they will be around shortly to give you some support on this.

    Thank you, thesacredpath!

    You are welcome, and just hang in there and they will get all of you safely over here.

    altacaliferne, with everyone jumping ship, it's possible that there could be a bottleneck on Knol's end. Would you mind trying again tomorrow?

    andreaskemper, there's no direct Knol import on this end. You need to initiate the transfer by exporting from Knol's end.

    To use this theme should change the post to the article? highly inefficient and effectively! It's Bad! It should simplify the user, but why should this post have to change the format as a default from wordpress. It's bad! Please fix from its template system if you want to be a favorite template! Do not make users! Thanks.
