    Hi,

    I’ve done a WordPress export this morning as I’m moving my blog from single WP to a blog on a WPMU installation.

    The problem is that during the day I’ve had some extra comments on the blog, so I performed another export intending to strip these comments out to just import them into the new WPMU.

    Problem is, they’re not appear in the export! I can’t even find the post they’re on in the export!

    Does anyone know of any caching of export files that might cause this? Or any other reason why this would be the case?

    Phil

    Has no-one had this issue, or see how it might occur? I thought maybe WP does some caching and that’s where the new comments are going…?

    Having done another export a few days, and posts and comments, later it seems that WordPress isn’t actually building the XML properly.

    It’s cutting out half-way through posts and not finishing, resulting in an incomplete, badly formed XML file.

    Anybody else seen this, especially in trac? Seems like it might be a bug…

    I am having the same issue. The export seems to cut off right when it gets to the comments for a post. Still searching for a fix here.

    I was able to resolve the issue by breaking up the export into separate files using the Advanced Export plugin here:
