We were very happy with the service but, recently the sync process for blogs has started taking over a half hour? It's not very convenient.

Terrible app! The single time use does not import images. As soon as the 72 hours is up, your images are gone.

Shopify used to have an app that worked magically for importing blogs from wordpress into the platform. This app needs to return! We have over 1000 blog post sitting on a server that we need imported into shopify. The wordpress import app created by Shopify worked when I tested it before (when it existed). When the time finally came for us to transfer our website domain completely to shopify, the app was gone. We were left to use this Blogfeeder app. If you are doing a one time import, DO NOT USE THIS APP. What good is an import that does not import the images to shopify server? What good is a blog without its images? GARBAGE.

My guess is Shopify shut down the app because of the server resources it took to import and download the images, unfortunately this is exactly what a blog importer needs to do!

Please refund!!!

Do not install this app, seems to be more bug that software. Completely unusable. Zero stars. Only cost me $15 to discover this but hopefully i'll save a few people from the same fate.

Hi,

I am sorry you had a bad 1st experience while importing the posts.

Would you be open to open a ticket with us we take a look at your setup? Looking forward to hearing from you.

This app created 18K duplicate posts and heavily damaged our SEO. Very limited amount of admin settings, was not easy for us to diagnose problem and forced us to remove app.

This app was really buggy for me and didn't work on Safari. At first it only imported 10 articles, but after contacting support they told me to change some default settings in Wordpress and it was able to import all my articles. It's too bad those setting changes weren't in the instructions. It was a nailbiter, because I only had 72 hour window that I had to pay up-front with the app and the support case took a day or two, although support was pleasant to work with. None of the imported articles have any pictures even though Wordpress hosts them all, so I don't fully get why I would want this app at all.

Hi,

I am sorry you had a bad 1st experience while importing the posts. From your description it looks like you missed setting things up correctly.

When you have a moment can you confirm one setting in your WordPress admin for me? WordPress sites set their RSS feed syndication settings to only send 10 posts by default.

To update your RSS settings, go to Settings > Reading and change 'Syndication feeds show the most recent' to allow all of your posts in your feed (BlogFeeder needs access to all posts to import them). At the same time, you may want to ensure that you allow the full text in your RSS feed.

Update:
On checking our logs I can see you have 300 posts already imported. Would you mind letting us know if you require further assistance?
