I’ll probably be kicking myself because the steps involved may be very easy, but here’s my problem: I have a free WordPress.com account where my current blog resides. But I recently opened a bluehost.com account and wanted install wordpress 2 on the server and then migrate all my posts, comments, pictures, and links from my current blog over to the new host site where my new blog will be (same content, different URI). However, even with the book “WordPress2” by Maria Langer and Miraz Jordan, and looking at suggestions on this site, I cannot find any information on how to import a blog from a free WordPress.com account to the wordpress program. You can easily import from Blogger, Movable Type, and a few other services, but for some reason, exporting from wordpress.com to wordpress 2 is not a common thing. On bluehost, I used the Fantastico set up after spending too many hours trying to set up my blog using the “5 minute install,” and most of my current blog imported. However, I can’t seem to get the comments imported. Any suggestions on resovling this issue? Thanks!
