Just going to manually re-attach photos.

I was able to get it to import successfully on a second try. Thanks everyone for your help.

I actually saved 3 different xml files when exporting originally through WP. One for 2014 posts, one for 2013-2008 and one for ALL. I’m trying to import the one with ALL now, but not I’m getting an error message “The connection was reset” when clicking upload/import.

Thanks. I already have the old and new database backed up. Copying the entire db is not an option, because it would export pages. I do not need that, plus the new site is a completely different theme with different settings. Just need the posts.

When importing this sql file, do I need to drill down into a specific table? Or will it merge with the existing database and automatically break into appropriate tables?

Thanks Bet. Justin, I only need the posts/comments from a previous website. I already did a complete migration, but now I need to go back and grab the posts (blog) which wasn’t in the original plan. So I’m looking to move specific tables, not the entire database. Thanks.

Could you give me any tips? Do I just export the wp post table? Or comments, etc? Any way to pull the images that are attached to those posts?

No, I made the export from a site which was being taken down, so it is no longer active. I do not get an error message, it acts as if the import worked and says “All Done” or something of that sort. But none of the posts come over. I do still have access to the old site’s database, so if I can just export the posts tables, I’d be open to going that route.

No, it is the most recent WP 4.1.

I’m having this same issue as well. Slider on home page is m.i.a.

I’m also having this problem. When I change my theme to any theme other than “Minamaze” I am able to upload images. Any suggestions other than disabling plugins and reinstalling WP? Because I have already done both of those.
