Hi Mike, Please consider sharing it even if it's not clean. Chances are that someone will still find it pretty useful and might even clean it up for you. :) This thread came up with spooky timing for me, considering that I was right in the middle of trying to figure out how to migrate my posts over from typo to wordpress myself. I did go with the RSS importer (set to 1000 posts in the RSS feed), and modified my WP permalink URLs to include the '/archive/' part. It seemed to work surprisingly well, except that some of the pubDates in the feed seem to have been parsed wrong, resulting in the occasional permalink that off by a day. I'm in the process of fixing them by hand now in MySQL. I figured I would just write a quickie ruby + active_record script to bring the comments in later on. I guess one advantage of using using the RSS importer is that you don't have to deal with textile or markdown - it just imports straight html. -Pawel _______________________________________________ Typo-list mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/typo-list
