Problems Importing to Self-Hoested server

  • I’m porting my friend’s Blog who he had since 2006. First he was in Blogspot then imported his blog to WordPress.com in august 2009 and now he wants to move to my server (I already have my own wordpress blog with no problems on that server).

    He exported his Blog then used the xml file to import it in the freshly installed WordPress but he only gets his post up till August 2009 all posts after August 2009 are not imported. How can we fix this problem?

  • If they aren’t in the database (use phpMyAdmin to look at wp_posts table) then try the import again (and again if necessary).

    Hello MichaelH,

    Thanks for replying to my problem ??

    I checked wp_posts table in phpMyAdmin and it’s fine. I’m not sure if you ask me to import again using the WordPress Tool section or maybe there’s a way to import using phpMyAdmin?

    Should I re-import using wordpress tools section again and again?

    If the ‘missing’ posts are not in the wp_posts table then yes try the import again.

    is it normal to try importing 10+ times for it to work?

    Hard to tell. You are sure the XML file has all the posts?
