- Download the latest continuous release to "bootstrap" the site
- Start a local webserver and run it at port 80
- Open your Wordpress instance **on your local machine** to import the XML
- Use a plugin like Auto Upload Images to move the bootstrapped images to your Wordpress instance
This is because the Wordpress XML file does **not** bundle images. Our Wordpress instance is therefore configured to fetch all images from itself, which exported as localhost, meaning you must move all the "localhost" images over to your instance.
