Posted: 06.19.2002 Yakkety-YACCS, don't talk back
Until this weekend, I didn't even know it was possible to export/import YACCS comments from Blogger into your Movable Type entries. (The Timekeeper found the link for me for his blog.) I'm about to attempt it for the first time, so I'll report in the comments how it went. Wish me luck! And detailed, step-by-step directions are here if you want to attempt it for your own blog.
How does it "know" which Blogger post to match it up to? (Ok, I'm just wondering outloud here since I haven't read all of the instructions in depth. No need to answer me.) ¤ ¤ credit: Christine | 06.19.02 at 09:02 PM | link--this ¤ ¤After you've already imported your Blogger entries into MT, you create an .xml file of your YACCS comments and another .xml file with your Blogger entries. Then you run a .php script that comes with the .zip file (including directions) and it matches them up. This creates a new import.html file that you run a normal MT import with. I just finished on Horologium with no problems if you want to dig through the archives, so I guess it took just under 30 minutes total. ¤ ¤ credit: robyn | 06.19.02 at 09:11 PM | link--this ¤ ¤Sweet! Thanks for the info! I'll spread the word... ;) ¤ ¤ credit: Christine | 06.19.02 at 09:31 PM | link--this ¤ ¤Good luck Robyn !! ¤ ¤ credit: Tammie | 06.19.02 at 10:19 PM | link--this ¤ ¤Thanks! I finished up about 30 minutes later and all went well! :-) ¤ ¤ credit: robyn | 06.19.02 at 10:21 PM | link--this ¤ ¤
