Blogspot import limits

Image
I haven't spent a lot of time engaged in the nuances of Google BlogSpot usage, I have however, stumbled onto measures put in place to limit the number of imports one can perform in a day, an unfortunate lesson to learn at this time, luckily the blog affected is not mission critical. The plan was to export posts, perform a mass find/replace then import changes, but that did not work out as planned which led to a content purge, followed by the import no longer working as expected. Warnings would have been helpful, but that may be a bit too much to ask since each attempt after would claim itself a success but fail to produce the goods.  My final attempt did return a response which brought me  here:  https://support.google.com/blogger/thread/34774222/sorry-but-you-have-exceeded-the-maximum-number-of-imports-please-try-again-later?hl=en&msgid=34817302 Lesson learned so far: BlogSpot import is super duper finicky 😕
