# [Plugin: WordPress Importer] comments missing

 * I did the last backup of my blog 2011-01-22 (wordpress.2011-01-22.xml). Yesterday(
   2011-02-14) I installed WP 3.0.5 and used this plugin to import but the comments
   are missing (although they still are in the XML file). Besides there are problems
   with the categories.
    I’ll install a previous version of WP and try again… Thanks.-

 * A previous version of WordPress shouldn’t make a difference; especially if you
   have upgraded within the 3.0.x family.
 * You could try out the vastly improved [development version [direct link]](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/wordpress-importer.zip)
   of the importer available from the [Other Versions](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-importer/download/)
   page. Though I have had no previous problems when importing comments using version
   0.2 of the importer.
 * Having access to a sample export XML file that does not work for you would really
   help to diagnose the issue. If this is possible you can contact me privately 
   via email: `wp {AT} lionsgoroar.co.uk`

 * Thanks for your reply.
    But I remember that in previous versions, import was 
   not managed for a plugin. I’m not sure. I think that if use same version of WP
   where I exported, should be works seamless. === >> Having access to a sample

 * OK. Was a problem with WP-UserAgent” plugin By Kyle Baker. I just reinstaled.
   
   So no problem with “WordPress Importer” Thanks.-
