Import Comments

Written by

So I’m submitting my MovableType update to mt-plugins.org.

Luciana wanted to import her comments from HaloScan (she was using this before movabletype.org in conjuction with blooger.com) so I modified the movabletype source to include an “Import Comments” link. The code is horribly ugly, and barely tested (it worked with Luciana’s comments, and that’s about all the testing I was able to do).

It would be cool to add more commenting systems, but I don’t have them to test. Feel free to let me know if you have some you’d like added.

This is the best thing I have heard of since… oh, I don’t know when! Thanks so much! My site is being transferred to a new server – I can’t wait for that to be done, so I can try this! Coolness!

Any chance you know how to import Haloscan into WordPress or Blogger? None of the scripts I’ve found work.

Thanks!
