Platform migration schedule

Posted by Blog.com Team in 01. Jul, 2009, under Maintenance

We are tying up the last loose ends in the move to wordpress. If your blog is still living in the previous platform, expect it to be automatically migrated during the next couple of weeks. No intervention is needed by the blog owner. We will move all the data to the new infrastructure and convert it to wordpress format. Your blog template will be kept as it is now, with all the customizations you have done so far. We will send an individual email to each author as soon as his/her account is migrated.

Moving blogs between platforms entails a change in the server that actually serves the blog. This operation takes a few hours to propagate over the Internet. Right after your blog gets moved, new posts may suffer a delay of up to two hours to show up everywhere. The blog itself will never be unavailable. Only posts done immediately after the migration are affected.

Please don’t send requests to blog.com support to speed up your specific blog migration. The process is automatic, and the support team can’t change the order blogs get processed.

    Hi, I found that my blog at wordpress.com can support embedded audio playback by simply inserting it into a post. However, at blog.com, it will just create a link to the audio. Can you fix this? Thank you.

    The most important part of blog was the view count. This simply does not exist on the new format. I have contacted support several times for help/explanation….no response. So now I am on the search for an easy to use blog that has a view count. Honestly, word press is complicated and a confusing pain to use. Loved the old format.
