Importing plog database joy to wordpress. (3 posts)

    I searched for a bit on how to do this but didnt find much of use. So I wrote my own little one to import posts and comments from a plog db into a wordpress db on the same host, with the same user. I did not know much about wordpress's available functions much and had trouble with 2 db objects getting confused so I used pear (http://pear.php.net) to build this. I doubt much of that part may be important to any of you but the goofy stuff to convert dates and push it all over is in there. So I thought maybe some of the real php folks with wordpress might want to use it to make a real wordpressable import-plog.php. Either way it worked ok for me.
    Took the data (in my tests) from http://knock-knock.eosin.org to http://knock-knock.eosin.org/betastuff

    Seems to work. (note I'm not a php wizard so please dont kill me)

    Glad to hear that it worked for you and possibly others who are still running old versions of plog. But does anyone have it for plog 1.0?
