Now you brought up another question - if I had to import the over 1100 posts which ones would I pick. Maybe I should prune a few of the old ones off my list.Bill Lislemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15187273560129198423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-50524940647996869542012-10-12T07:32:33.299+11:002012-10-12T07:32:33.299+11:00No so, Mr Mike, at all.No so, Mr Mike, at all.Lillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14597193176450931002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-53219984980965257292012-10-12T06:59:52.383+11:002012-10-12T06:59:52.383+11:00Indeed, Lilly, thanks for the tip.

So if you lost your blog for some reason, you just use your backup to import it into a new blog. These are the notes I found on Google Blogger Help.<br /><br />Import Into an Existing Blog<br /> <br />To import posts and comments into an already existing blog, go to Settings | Other and click on "Import blog" from the "Blog tools" section. Don't worry -- your template won't be affected by imported content. Next, choose a Blogger export file (.xml) from your hard drive and fill out the word verification beneath. By default, all of your imported posts will remain unpublished until you publish them from your dashboard later. However, if you would rather have all posts published immediately, make sure to check the box next to Automatically publish all imported posts before you click Import Blog.<br /> <br />If you didn't choose to have your posts publish automatically, you'll need to manually publish them from the Posts | Imported tab before they will appear on the web. You can either publish all the posts at once by clicking the checkbox at the top and selecting all before clicking Publish, or simply checking the ones you want to publish one by one.<br />Lillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14597193176450931002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-70905484976614521282012-10-11T17:55:28.120+11:002012-10-11T17:55:28.120+11:00That's good - it might save you time YW.That's good - it might save you time YW.Lillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14597193176450931002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-7825675868406292332012-10-11T09:28:52.814+11:002012-10-11T09:28:52.814+11:00Thank you!!!

Not to say the backup is not worth doing. I did something less thorough but readable by a browser. I saved all my posts labeled memories as "web pages" which was an option on my "save page as" menu.<br />thanks Bill Lislemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15187273560129198423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-6539415009781057582012-10-11T07:06:44.482+11:002012-10-11T07:06:44.482+11:00thanks, Lilly, I'm all backed up, I think I di...thanks, Lilly, I'm all backed up, I think I did exactly the same thing in May and totally forgot how I did it.
