Log in to your blogger account and click the blog you would like to import into Wordpress.
Go to SETTINGS, PUBLISHING. Chances are you are publishing on blogspot.com.
Click the ?Switch to FTP? link and you will be taken to the FTP menu.
Fill in the different FTP fields with information from your server.
Change the BLOG FILE NAME to wordpress.php. Type your FTP Username and Password and click SAVE SETTINGS.
Go to the SETTINGS, FORMATTING tab.
Change the TIMESTAMP FORMAT from whatever it is set to to this format 9/23/04 11:53:01AM. It should be the first on the drop down list box. Click SAVE SETTINGS.
Go to the SETTINGS, ARCHIVING tab. Make sure Archive Frequency is set to MONTHLY and rename the archive file to wordpress.php
Go to the TEMPLATE tab and do a backup of your existing blogger template to be on the safe side.
To do that, block and copy your template code and paste it into any word editing program like NOTEPAD or WORDPAD. Save it as a txt or rtf file.
Go to the Wordpress Blogger Import Guide Page at
http://myblogdomain/wp-admin/import-blogger.php and copy the import template code as shown below.
Go back to your Blogger Window, under Template and paste the import template code into the now empty box in your blogger screen. Click SAVE TEMPLATE CHANGES.
When you get the SETTINGS WERE SAVED SUCCESSFULLY message, click the REPUBLISH button just below it.
Wait for the YOUR BLOG PUBLISHED SUCCESSFULLY confirmation from your Blogger screen.
Make sure the blogger archive files were successfully imported into your wordpress directory. If you have an FTP client, you can check this by logging into your wordpress folder and looking for the archive files. They should look like this 2004_05_01_wordpress.php . The number of these files should depend on how many months you have archived in your blogger journal.
When that?s done, go back to the Wordpress Blogger Import Guide Page and click the OK button on the THIRD STEP as shown below.
Keep your fingers crossed! Congratulations to a successfully imported blog!
