Import posts and pages from Blogspot to WordPress with a preview-first workflow, live progress, retries for failed items, and SEO-friendly redirects.

== Description ==

**A guided Blogger to WordPress migration workflow**

Import Wizard for Blogspot helps you move a public Blogger site into WordPress without API setup or manual copy-paste. Paste the Blogger URL, preview what the plugin finds, and import with live progress so you can see exactly what is happening.

Version 3.4 improves the migration experience with a clearer three-step flow:

* **Check the blog first** to confirm the Blogger feed is reachable and public
* **Preview the content counts** before the import starts
* **Import with live progress and retry tools** if a few items need attention
* **Follow a post-import checklist** before enabling redirects

= Why site owners choose this plugin =

* **Preview-first migration** so the import never starts blindly
* **Posts and pages support** with separate counts before the run begins
* **Live progress log** during the import
* **Retry failed items** without starting from scratch
* **Redirect settings** to preserve old Blogger links after migration
* **No Blogger API credentials required**
* **Blogger labels become WordPress categories**
* **Featured image support** from the first image in the content

= Free version limits =

The free version imports up to **20 posts** and **20 pages** per run. The preview screen shows the exact number of items that will be imported before you start.

= Upgrade to Pro =

**[Get the Pro Version](https://siteskyline.com/blogger-to-wordpress/)**

The Pro version is a better fit for larger migrations and includes:

* Unlimited posts and pages
* More migration help for bigger Blogger sites
* Local image importing improvements
* Advanced migration support

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= How does the new import flow work? =

Enter your Blogger URL, choose whether to import posts, pages, or both, then run the preview. The plugin checks that the feed is public, counts the available content, and shows how many items the free version will import before the actual migration begins.

= Does my Blogger site need to be public? =

Yes. The plugin imports from the public Blogger feed, so the blog must be publicly accessible.

= How many items can I import with the free version? =

The free version imports up to 20 posts and 20 pages in a run. If the preview finds more than that, it will clearly show the difference before you click Start Import.

= What happens if a few items fail during import? =

The importer keeps a live log, finishes the rest of the run, and lets you retry failed items directly from the importer screen.

= Can I import only posts or only pages? =

Yes. You can import posts only, pages only, or both.

= Will this help preserve SEO after moving from Blogger to WordPress? =

Yes. After you review the imported content, you can enable the redirect setting so old Blogger URLs point to the new WordPress URLs.

= Do I need Blogger API credentials? =

No. The plugin works with the public Blogger feed and does not require API credentials.

= Where should I go if I need help? =

If the import finishes with issues, the plugin now nudges users toward support instead of asking for a review. You can also visit the [support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/import-wizard-blogspot/).
