Hi MJassen,

thanks for the speedy response.

Can you tell me how to attach images to this ticket?

Jenny

All sorted!

I needed to generate a new access token, this showed up after I updated the plugin following hte WordPress update.

I hope this helps someone else who has the same issue.

Jen

Sure thing Stephen..

Still baffled I am!

Update:

This is just happening on Firefox, not on Chrome or Safari..

So I really have no clue how to fix this!

I think I’ve read about twenty threads on three different boards insisting that WXR and .XML are the same file format and .XML should be able to import without difficulty.

So James, I think its fair to assume that this is in fact a WordPress bug.

QUOTE from post posted one year ago:

Judging by the ratings and user reports, there are clearly some major issues in the WordPress export/import pipeline right now. What’s even more distressing is how long it’s been broken without getting any attention.

So please, if this plugin isn’t working for you under standard use conditions, do everyone a favor and mark this plugin as “Not Working”.

Thanks James.

I am still convinced that this is a WordPress bug. And even more so now after reading through the posts on this site about it like this one:

Hopefully the next release of WordPress will address it and the Import Feature will again work properly in future versions.

Thanks again and have a wonderful evening.

Hi there,

Im aware that WordPress files are not XML files thanks.

All commercial themes I purchase to use come with sample data (in the form of XML files) to import using the WORDPRESS/IMPORT tool on the left hand side of the dashboard.

This was working fine on all themes I had purchased until I updated to the latest version of WordPress.

Its hugely frustrating to have to go and try to compress the xml data file to import to WordPress…

Has there been a fix to this yet?

Jenny

Thanks.

I understand that.

The problem obviously lies somewhere else as both of the themes have this issue.

Has anyone else encountered this problem??

I bought both of the themes from Themeforest.

From two completely different sellers.

Hi Esmi,

Firstly I was using 907-responsive-wp-one-page-parallax

This afternoon I am using the new roboto.

Thanks

Jenny

Thank you so much Esmi.

That plugin worked perfectly.

I appreciate your help.

Jenny

But surely the theme isnt the issue? If I switch themes, I will still need to know how to seperate the categories of blogposts?

I can revert back to Twenty Ten to resolve the issue?

All I want to know is how to make sure all categories dont appear on the blogpage?
