Migrate Blog & Users to WP.org for Contempt Theme

your posts, comments and authors are exported
you can use the same api for the stats plugin
don’t know about site meter thingy

at .com
dashboard – tools export

at .org
dashboard – tools – import

just set up a new install at wherever and do the export/import

Samuel B.,

Thanks!

What about the users (you mean the authors)? I want the 15 authors on the WP.com side to be able to use their ‘.com’ IDs (user/author) at ‘.org’.

One last question, so if I don’t care what theme I use, the transfer of posts, comments, authors, will coincide with whichever theme I choose right?

yes – true

not exactly sure what you mean but you can create the authors with the same user name and assign them author privileges

So they have to create their WP.org ID’s all over again?

In WP.com I could invite authors, now I have to create their ID’s in WP.org. Is this normal?

yes – it’s normal
either someone registers or you create them

Thanks Samuel!
