• i hope you can follow this:
    i imported from blogger to wordpress.com successfully. all blogger posts were automatically mapped to a single category for me. i have nearly 900 posts. in WP, i created categories, and have been slowly assigning categories for my old posts and using categories for my new ones.

    i quickly realized that i want more flexibility. so i installed wordpress at godaddy with no problem.

    now i’m trying to import my posts to my new blog, but the only ones that come over are the old blogger posts where i did not yet correct the category. nothing current is importing.

    can anyone help?

    my blogs are http://www.wemakethree.wordpress.com and http://www.wemakethree.com

  • So you did the Manage->Export from wordpress.COM and imported that into your new blog with Manage->Import and none of the posts you created at wordpress.COM (since you imported from blogger) imported?

    Do you see those posts in the XML file?

    correct – none of the new posts from wordpress.com imported. in addition, none of the old posts that i assigned a category in wordpress.com imported. only blogger posts that i had not yet categorized in wp.com imported.

    yes, i have the xml file. it’s 1.7 mb.

    and i just need to add a couple more things i found:

    1. the category that i’ve put almost all of my new posts in on my wp.com blog does not have a check box next to it in the admin section of my new hosted wp blog.

    2. even though there are many posts that did import, the admin section shows none in each of my categories.
