I moved to a self-hosted site and have had trouble moving over the users who were signed up to receive new post notifications via email. I tried the Follow and Subscribe2 plugins but am having issues with people not receiving the emails, etc.

I saw another support forum post about this topic where you suggested they install Jetpack and then you could move their users over for them:
https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/moving-subscribers-from-my-wordpresscom-to-self-hosted-wordpressorg-blog?replies=4

I have installed Jetpack on my url and activated it. I would appreciate it if my users could be moved over also so that I could start using the plugin.

The blog I need help with is shiftphiladelphia.com.

I have moved your subscribers as requested.

There are over 500, so the transfer may take a few hours.

Please let us know if you have any more questions!

annapapalia, you’re welcome!

gelizzy88, they’re listed via the Blog link right where your circle is. The list cannot be exported.

HI Macmanx,
Would you be able to do the same for me? I’d really appreciate it. I’ve also installed the plugin but my subscribers have not migrated.
it’s http://www.barbarajoybeatus.com (both sites) but one was wordpress and the new one is a self-hosted site.
thanks so much!
