Figured out the problem! Goodbye, Sitemeter!

And now that I’ve posted this, everything has appeared. For some reason, it’s all loading EXTREMELY slowly.

I have spent the last 3 days attempting to use this to import my XML file of my WordPress.com blog into WordPress. I followed all the directions. I split the file. I even split the file into sizes as small as .10 MB. It consistently times out while importing. My programmer brother spent all night attempting to do it. He changed the server timeout time. He split the file manually. It still times out. After it times out, media files are uploaded, but no posts appear.

My host company suggested using the plugin WordPress Move? Has anyone used that? Does it work with a WordPress.com site?

Okay. Now I’ve split the file, even down to just .10 MB each, and it times out while the script is running, like in this post. What now? ??

Oh, thank you so much! I’ve been trying to do this at work, which is part of the problem. I’ll have a look at this all later.

I appreciate the help!

It’s 2.6MB. I’ve only had the blog since the end of August.

I just checked the error log, and there are lots of “file does not exist.” For example, “[Tue Dec 03 12:14:03 2013] [error] [client 8.31.236.255] File does not exist: /home/shedream/public_html/404.shtml, referer: https://shedreamsinperfectfrench.com/2013/11/26/giving-thanks-2/”

I’m pretty much stumped.
