Works well, but drops permalinks
By aarnott on December 4, 2022
I am migrating from Blogger to Wordpress, and keeping the host name the same (I owned the domain blogger was hosting on, so I can just subtly switch to WP). The posts came over well, but the exported Blogger data included the permalink URL and this importer dropped that, so the URLs will change although I can keep the host name of the URL the same. I'm looking for any tool that can import with the permalinks included.
Hasn't worked properly for years

I have used the "Blogger Importer Extended" plugin instead which is working.

Not Updated and Doesn't Work
By Tunde Abdulhamid Sanusi (Tuham) (tuham) on August 16, 2020
This is one of the top Plugins in WordPress repository, the developers should try to update and make it work back
Not completely broken
By LCCX (lostcommander) on June 14, 2020
I managed to use this to migrate a tiny old blog from Blogger to WordPress in June 2020 successfully-ish.
All of the published and draft posts from Blogger are now in WordPress.
All images in the posts were uploaded to the WordPress Media Library; the img tags in the posts were not updated to point to the new Media Library uploads.
All comments remained intact -- the author replacement only affected posts, not comment responses.
All Blogger labels were turned into WordPress categories.

Running the Blogger Importer in PHP 7 throws the following warning:
Deprecated: Methods with the same name as their class will not be constructors in a future version of PHP; Blogger_Importer has a deprecated constructor in /xxxxxx/wp-content/plugins/blogger-importer/blogger-importer.php on line 44
Another user reported this months ago, but it's not fixed yet.newspaper/

Seriously need an update
By Liew Cheon Fong (lcf) on September 7, 2017
this official blogger importer plugin seriously needs an update (last update was 2 years ago)
The plugin does not work 99% of time, especially when you have a few MBs blogger XML export file. IF you are lucky and got content imported, then some images are not imported.
There was an old tool that divides blogger xml file into smaller pieces to feed the plugin but that tool does not work now too.
I am actively looking for an alternative. Any idea?
