Hi there,
I just imported my blogger articles via the XML method, and noticed that not all of the articles have been imported.
There are 232 posts on blogger.
Only 121 were imported into Easyblog.

I checked the actual XML file and it seems all the posts are in the file. So it appears that something is not functioning correctly during the import process.

How can this be solved?

Thanks, John.
Hello John,

Can you provide us the blogger xml file so that we can test it on our local. Also, you might want to provide us your FTP as well. By the way, I've tried to access your backend but I got this: http://screencast.com/t/nJfxsIVWfr0d

Ahh I have RS Firewall installed. I'll deactivate it for the duration of this ticket.
How can I privately send you the FTP details?

FYI - the XML file is located in the folder as per migration instructions.

Hello John,

You can edit the question and add the FTP access. Only Stackideas's support team will be able to see your details.

FYI - I've only just setup the blog, so I'm happy for you to delete all the current posts, and import the complete posts from the XML file

Hello John,

Please replace the attached file in: ../administrator/components/com_easyblog/includes/migrator/adapters/blogger_xml.php and truncate the #__easyblog_migrate_content table and try to migrate it again. Let us know how it goes.

By the way, I've tried to access your backend but the password is incorrect and I was banned to access your admin site: http://screencast.com/t/4AjApgfRZ Please advise.

Hi Nik,
OK I'll create another admin login. Can you send me your IP address? You've probably been blacklisted!

Success! It migrated all the blogger posts successfully. Thanks so much!

I noted the comments aren't appearing on the posts themselves, but are appearing in the comments module.
I'll double check to see if i've changed any comment settings on the posts.

In the meantime....thank you!
