 * I always get syntax errors in every post process. Example:
    1. Processing post…[
   title]… Database error: [You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual
   that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near‘
   WHERE post_title = ‘[title]’ AND post_date = ‘2003-01-01] SELECT ID FROM WHERE
   post_title = ‘[title]’ AND post_date = ‘2003-01-01 11:01:49’ … I get all sorts
   of syntax errors like that. Though, they all begin with “Database error: [You
   have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL
   server version for the right syntax to use near…” Would anybody know what mistake
   I did in importing?

 * I fixed it now.
    I downgraded my WP from 1.2 to 1.0.1 and the import went smoothly.
   After importing, I upgraded my WP back to 1.2. Weird, huh.
