I would like to import a several thousand old diary and calendar entries into a private WordPress blog on my "localhost".
These need to be able to specify the Date and Time of the original event (some of which go back to 1969). I assume I need to create some form of RSS feed, then format the old entries into <item>s.
Early experiments have had mixed success... particularly in the area of managing timestamp (and I have already entered comments elsewhere over the fact the date seems to time-shift by 1 day in some cases).
Can anyone recommend a foolproof method - and a tag-format that should enable what I am trying to achieve?
Thanks in advance.
