I used a couple of URL rewrite rules to do a 301 redirect for old URLs, rather than inserting the redirect records into farFU.
With the Wordpress comments you can probably do an export and then a find/replace to "fix" any URLs. The Disqus import format that I export from BlogCFC also included an additional element "<dsq:thread_identifier>" which is a UUID used to identify the thread, I'm not sure if you can add something like that to the export that comes directly out of WordPress though, I haven't checked. Hope that helps :) cheers, Justin -- Justin Carter http://www.madfellas.com/blog http://twitter.com/justincarter On Fri, Nov 8, 2013 at 1:25 AM, Chris Kent <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi Justin, > > > > Thanks for info. > > > > If project goes ahead with FarCry then I would look at importing posts and > categories from WordPress into FarCry and import comments into Disqus. > > > > Not sure a direct import from WordPress to Disqus would work as URLs would > not be the same and I guess it is the URL that Disqus uses to associate > comments to a post.
