  I am importing my Xanga blog to Worldpress and it has taken over 24 hours. It’s been about a month now.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Sounds like you may need to have the importer reset by the staff. (The import shouldn’t take more than 24 hours.) Once that happens, just start the import again. I’ve tagged this post for staff attention. :-)

  Sorry about that!

  I have reset your importer, so please feel free to try again and let us know how it goes. :)

  Hi macmanx. Thanks for resetting, but I tried again, and the import is still “processing.” It has been about three weeks now. Please help. Thanks!

  I have reset the importer again. Please give it one more shot.

  Meanwhile, how many posts are on the blog you’re importing from?

  There are a lot of posts! Not sure how many, but the file it keeps getting stuck on is 696 KB.

  It gets stuck during the upload? If so, would you please try a different browser, like Safari or Chrome?
