We've tried our best but it looks like if your blog did not transfer properly into the new system, you will need to manually copy and paste the entries into the new system. We understand this is an inconvenience and can pretty much guarantee this issue won't repeat itself as the new blogging system is fully supported by the developers of this forum and future upgrades will be painless. The old blog software has gone out of business and is no longer in development - it was also developed by a 3rd party and did not integrate fully with the forum. The new blogs do!
Anyone who is missing a blog, please post in this thread and we will email you a link to view all of your old blog posts. This link will be available for at least a month, which should give you plenty of time to copy/paste any posts over.
Once again we apologize for the inconvenience and were not expecting some of the blogs to not transfer over. The move to the new system was necessary as it provides for a fully integrated blogging system that is being developed with new features, which we will be rolling out as they become available. Feel free to post any questions.

Sorry to hear this. I had the largest blog on this site. Copying and pasting isn't happening. I'm just glad I was running a similar blog of my raw progression on blogspot. I'm going to just begin again on here, I guess, and refer folks over to my raw progression (http://mattyeleesrawprogression.blogspot.com/)site if they want to know more about me and my journey.

To access your old blogs, go to
http://64.38.53.60/blogs/
It is IMPORTANT that you not try to post anything on that address. That is the old site/server and no changes will show up on the new site. That address is just for you to look and your old blogs. It will be available for at least 4 weeks.
There is nice option I just saw - once you going into your blog, you can click on Blog Tools from the top menu and select Download Entries - then copy and paste that into notepad and save.

We have cleaned up the file and put it in a word document for you. There might still be a little bit of code - like <title>. But it should be pretty readable.

Thanks
I saved my entries to my hard drive for now.
Not sure that the comments came along, did read through all the code but glad you all cared enough to make it available.
Think I'll post my junk to my sappy wordpress blog, might give it some life and a littel traffic.
Thanks again!

Got two pages done. Not worrying so much about the comments (due to time issues). Going to finish the rest of the pages over the next two days. Thanks again for posting the link!:)
