PS- I am a little confused as there are plugins for this and xml generators so perhaps I need to do more than I realize.

Ahhh…Thanks!

Alan

PS- It works in IE. Hmmmm, again. I will be out for a bit but I look forward to any thoughts when I return ??

Alan

get out?? On both of my computers, using FF, when I am on the home page all is well but, on the post pages (not a page like “About), I do not get the typical hover pointer/hand. Not only on the Twitter icon, but on various ad images as well. Hmmmm…

Alan

whooami,

It’s most all image links on any post page. Didn’t think much leg work was required & it will be necessary to also view the home page in order to see that the pointer functions properly there. But, here ya go…a link to a post page. For example, hover over the Twitter icon. Either way, you’ll need to check out a post page & the home page ?? Wasn’t trying to put the task on others. Thanks for your help.

Thanks…yeah…I’ve been reading up on the issue. I though the issue was resolved back with one of the 2.5 versions, but apparently not as I am running 2.7.1.

Alan

froggy,

Not sure why this happened to you but this tool does work with the new Blogger templates as well. I have never used classic Blogger and had no problem. Just want others to know that the tool can work well with layout Blogger templates too ??

Alan

Thanks,

The more I learn the more I think I should backup everything in my public_html folder in addition to my database. I have a few nice backup options with my host company that may be quicker than using a third party FTP client like Filezilla. I’ll need to do a bit more research & of course, I am still open to any additional suggestions. Thanks.

GOOD NEWS ALL!

There is a conversion tool available brought to you by Google which I was directed to by a rep from WP.com & it works! See below:

Here is a link to the Google discussion group in regards to this app.

Good luck,

Sorry for so many posts but I tried the Pivot method with all of my posts & after multiple attempts, nothing. It’s not worth explaining ?? I hope someone has another solution

Alan

pps- Ok…the problem is that Pivot was referring to a classic template, of which mine is not. I reverted to a classic template & followed the directions and was actually able to upload through the Moveable import tool. However… I only tried this with a test blog that had 3 posts & only 2 came through properly. The one with the label did not nor did the label upload. The one post with a comment did in fact upload properly. I am hoping the WP.com feature will again function soon.

Alan

ps- I also tried Mercime method of using Pivot but the instructions there don’t seem to make sense…

Go to the screen where you can post new entries, and click on the Template tab. Change your main template to the following

Not sure to what they are referring. Are you there Mercime? ??

Alan

Math,

Same problem here. However, a couple of weeks ago I used wp.com to import from another Blogger blog & the import tool on wp.com worked like a charm. Today, I receive the same error message that you receive.

Anyone?

Alan

madhatterdesign,

I receive the same message although a couple of weeks ago I did not.

Anyone have any ideas?

Alan

82times,

I used WP.com a couple weeks ago to import from Blogger, however, today, I am receiving the almost same error message as above trying to import from WP.com:

Access Request

The page you have requested cannot be displayed. Another site was requesting access to your Google Account, but sent a malformed request. Please contact the site that you were trying to use when you received this message to inform them of the error. A detailed error message follows:

The site “https://www.wordpress.com” has not been registered.

So, the import tool on .org doesn’t actually import & the .com no lomger works either… any ideas?

Alan
