    I've tried pretty much everything. I tried to publish in a different folder, changed paths, archive names, etc etc etc. SO ANNOYING! I don't have time to learn how to export to wordpress right now, but I guess it's going on my "to do" list. Blah.

    Haha...Is it that hard to believe that I'm not the only lingerie site out there?

    Welcome to the forum, Lingerie Lady :).

    Summer, it used to be more complicated but actually version 2.02 makes it a breeze - nothing to learn really.

    Install WordPress 2.02.

    Go to your ACP.

    Click on the Import tab and select "Blogger".

    Follow the rest of the instructions - WP imports your posts and comments.

    You're done. :D

    Depending on your posts, you may have a little post-editing to do to fix some formatting here and there but that's pretty minor. And once you discover the Akismet anti-spam plugin and a few other essential plugins and see how easy THEY are to install, you'll be like me... middle-aged and male... no wait, I mean, impressed and wondering why you didn't convert sooner.

    Summer, an hour (max) today to install WordPress and import your blogger posts will save you weeks of frustration. Just do it.

    In view of the fact that you're (1) a lady and (2) the one with the gun, not necessarily in that order, I am inclined to agree with you.
