The new Blogger beta has apparently made it impossible to import from Blogger to WordPress. Blogger may have changed the structure of their data files. If so, then no way the import can work. No doubt a fix will be along soon enough.
Update: 10/15. There is a fix.
Doh!
Well there you have it, a Doh from the Big Guy himself! The fix is forthcoming.
Thanks Bob and Matt,
I’m looking forward to making the switchover.
guys,
I have just scrounged up changed, purchased a domain and have installed WordPress. I am suffering from the broken importer syndrome, and am looking forward to jumping off that steaming pile of poo that is blogspot.
Keeping myself posted…
May the force be with you. Thank you Matt for what you do…
