Talk:Importing Content

We need to add instructions about the importing of images. Do these imports pull in the images, or just the article text? And if images can't be imported, what's the workaround? Tom 05:24, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

This is another page liked to from the Main_Page so why is it a "dead end"? And PLEASE can we remove the link for TextPattern that "doesn't work" so why the heck do we list it "anyway"? Is there something else to replace it?

What doesn't work will be fixed, if there are bug report and user inputs. Carthik 23:32, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)

It would appear that the link for the Blosxom import script is broken...

Hi, about that b2evo script. Converting titles and posts to UTF-8 mangles the special characters (the blog I'm trying to convert is partially in Finnish). Also, converting from an older b2evo, the dates were wrong. These were trivial to correct, but it would be really nice to get them corrected in the "official" script.

Sorry to bitch here if this is the wrong place, and thanks for the hard work! :) --Mandrl 21:36, 31 Jul 2005 (UTC)

The script you were using for the b2evo import is not part of the WordPress package. It is linked from this article as helpful information. It is best to contact http://themikecam.com folks directly for support. Thank you. Lorelle 14:05, 1 Aug 2005 (UTC)


The blosxom import script is currently not working correctly. You have to change the "PST" bit in the rss20 template to GMT and I think that it will then take the timezone offset correctly into account, but I'm not completely sure. Jeroen 20:27, 30 Aug 2005 (GMT)

Motime and Splinder

I added links on importing posts from Motime (USA) and Splinder (Italy). My personal experience in english, and the original documentation (by Demetrio Girardi) in Italian.
