1. I have thousands of entries and recipe photos. I can’t manually transfer all the photos, it would be impossible. Will I lose them when I migrate or is there a way to do this, other than manually transferring pictures, or perhaps a plug-in that would move the images.
2. Can I I migrate to WordPress without making it active and still use Blogger until I figure it out Or In other words, when I migrate does Blogger stay intact.
3. Should I first make a a dummy account in WordPress and if so, then would I be able to repoint it to the correct url.
The thought of doing this is daunting, and any suggestions you give me to make this less painless would be much appreciated. I know I have a learning curve ahead of me.
]]>I’m trying to break down the files to less than 20 MB each (the limit on my ISP is 20MB).
I have tried the WXR Splitter utility, but it has not worked on the half dozen machines that I have tried it on, I get a, “System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection,” error, and I have tried it on about a half dozen machines.
I am looking for a way to split the files, either something that works in Windows 10, or on a shell account (Python, Perl, etc.).
I have access to the shell on my ISP.
Any suggestions?
]]>Thank you.
]]>I have tried to import but each time, the same 20 posts imported…
The file I’ve downloaded is the one Blogger gives me through ‘back up content’ ? Any suggestions?

Honestly the plugin is working great so I would not be surprised if this is an issue with blogspot. But I would like confirmation if possible. If I try to include any link like the above in the feed, the page will not update. So I can’t include any blogspot sites.
]]>I tried “Blogger Importer” (months ago) and “Blogger Importer Extended”. Both import the posts and the thumbnails and then I find that the links underneath the thumbnails still point to Blogspot, and that the higher resolution images haven’t even been imported. The result is unusable of course because I want to get rid of the Blogspot blog and move it to WP. So I installed a plugin called “Cache Images” that claims to import all linked images, and change the links in the posts. It does seem to import many or all of the hi-res images from Blogspot but most of the links in the blog posts still point to Blogspot, instead of pointing to the imported images in the media library. WTF?
It would also be a good idea if the images from blog posts are put into the correct year/month folders in the media library and not all into the day of the import. I’m surprised that I have to even point this out, but “Cache Images” didn’t do that. I wrote on their forum but no reply so far.
Is there hope?
