    @npagazani So you agree that you are doing a partial migration, as you will always depend on blogger account and files to stay online.

    That’s not a migration but a linked lifetime dependable cloning.

    Sometimes work sometimes not? It worked in previous versions. Now its a repeteable error.

    The plugin is great, but that iamge url aspect needs to be solved to work as intended.

    Note again I would be willing to pay for a working plugin, so just trying to help here to improve it. Now is not suitable for a correct 100% effcient migration to WordPress.

    If we leave blogger is for a reason, not to continue to be dependable on them.

    Yes, cause is the first thing you check when the import is done. The images src and where it links just pointing or clicking the images in recently imported posts.

    The image src its ok, but before it linked to the image/file url , and when clicking displaying a wpress gallery or slideshow , now it will only take you to the raw bp.blogspot image link.
    Thus it is not a complete migration from blogger cause we still depend on those bp.blogspot iamges to stay up.

    Check that many are complaining on this exact problem only from past weeks/months.

    Maybe a function can solve the problem, but cannot get the solution , it needs grep all bp.blogspot href and replace by the new wordpress image file url.
    Cannot be done a database level as I think there is no image url field, but when editing the post, there is visual popup when editing the image that lets you change to where the image link points.

    So it can be implemented for a bulk action, but sadly I don’t have that much skills on php/wpress to make it myself.
    Checked default_image_url , but does not works modifying existing posts,
    also tried to set it before the import without success.

    You guys are replacing the img src already at the import process , thus I think you can arrange this as it worked before.

    Hope it can be solved, as think again, it’s not worth to migrate if you have thousand of images linking to an extenal blogspot file instead of the actual media file your plugin imported to wordpress local server.

    Think that no one can use this plugin right now, as the new site its 100% linked to previous blogger images locations. manually changing thousand of pics is not possible.

    Thanks for your concern.

    1. The images get imported correctly (somewhat), but all images (on most imports) have a “Link to media” href which points to the blogspot image on the blogspot image library..

    This is a big problem right now, I’m willing to pay for the plugin, but right now can’t be used in production enviroments, its almost useless on reason above well descripted by npagazani.

    You guys need to address the image url link while importing, as the previous version had no issues. Test with lastes WP version please.

    Same problem here, if this aspect doesn’t work you don’t have a complete successful migration as ig blogger pics are gone, you will have broken links all over the place, specially for large sites.

    Reviewd, thanks for the work.

    1- Good, you can try to limit the overlay to the lower title rea only.
    Or add a small row with a grey or light background to show title only as you display in the dynamic grid https://demo.lp-tricks.com/recent-posts/responsive-grid-dark/

    But again with title date only, a small row.

    2. Sorry, didn′t check that without selecting all cats were a default.
