How can import blogger posts using custome xml or any other way?

Question

I tried to import 50 posts but its take long time with continue showing writing post message but not getting any error.

My step: 1.backup content as xml using blogger setting option. 2.add custom post details as same as existing xml tags and format. 3.using import content option and upload xml file without publishing option.

But it is successful for 1 or 2 times but now it is not working for 5 post also. I followed blogger restrictions that 4 import a day with 50 post.

Please guide if have any option to upload post in blogger. I am not migrated post from wordpress or any other blog.it is custom posts which needs to upload in bulk within google terms.

Answer 1

Unfortunately blogger does not notify you when you have errors in your xml. It is not importing it. In my case it takes 30 sec to import 200+ posts.

Also what i have see is that whenever i import posts i never check the the publish immediately checkbox because this basically takes more time to import, regardless whether your xml is valid.

So:

1. Have a valid xml (test one post for starters, date format , correct closing of tags etc)
2. As soon as you import one correctly..
3. Try to import more, but do not check the "Publish Immediately" check box.

That worked for me.

The process you are using seems correct.

I am using the below format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><ns0:feed <xmlns:ns0="http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom">
<ns0:generator>Blogger</ns0:generator>
<ns0:entry>

Just now I tried to import to my blogger and this format work for me.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<feed xmlns='http://www.w3.org/2005/Atom'>
<generator version='7.00' uri='https://www.blogger.com'>Blogger</generator>
<entry>
  <id>1</id>
  <published>2019-11-28T01:18:00.005-08:00</published>
  <category scheme='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#kind' term='http://schemas.google.com/blogger/2008/kind#post'/>
  <category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='LABELS'/>

2022... this works on my recent blogger.com blog

it's from a post generator on sneeit.com here

I think that blogger.com has some limits on how many files you can upload per day (or maybe the total volume in the file. I was just trying to find one valid file format and this is the one which works... it posts the full text of the "article" into a post in a blogger.com blog).
