    I am trying to transfer a blogger blog thats hosted on a sub domain but it's not coming through correctly since I moved it to a subdomain and a new server it's missing all of my blog posts from the last 5 months. Any ideas or suggestions>?

    You can't without a whole lot of copying and pasting. Blogger lets you export but the file can only be imported into other blogs.
    For future reference, use WordPress.com instead because it lets you export to a web hosting account with the downloadable version of WordPress should you choose to move.

    I switched servers before and got it to work so I can't explain what I am doing wrong now so thats definitely not the case.

    You went from Blogspot to a hosted WordPress install automatically? I doubt that, please link to instructions? If that is indeed possible, I'd love to know how.
