We're also having login issues since changing to a new domain. Any ideas there? Thank you!

Hi, your import is currently in progress. Please note that depending on the size it may take a while until it's completed.

Is it possible to get a progress update? Thank you for your help!

The XML dump is done, images should be shortly.

whoops, didn't mean to resolve yet

Now should be done

really appreciate your prompt response on this reception123, thanks very much. seems like each of the images was uploaded with a boilerplate "imported from webkinzpictureguide.shoutwiki.com," but about 3,000 of those had something substantial on them originally. i assumed the *.png.desc files would have taken care of that, so i'm wondering what happened to those?

sorry to be a bother on this @Reception123, there's still a missing piece. from a spot check, seems like some of the files have the descriptions they did on shoutwiki (e.g. barbershopflooring.png miraheze vs shoutwiki), but some of them don't (e.g. cozycountryflooring.png miraheze vs shoutwiki). is there a pattern to this? if importing 33k *.png.desc is too many, i can pull the list of the 3k that have substantial info if that would help; worst-case-scenario, i can redo the work on the 3k

I'm not sure why that would be the case, however I should note that .desc files themselves don't get imported as far as I know, only the XMLs which include the descriptions.

No further response. Please reopen if you still need anything.
