Documentation on how to use? #1

How to use this? I would like to import from an older problog installation using the c5 xml option. Where should I get the c5 xml is it the standard c5 database export file? Will it ignore all other pages on import and only grab blog content? What about images?

Getting some error and page not found at the top when I try to import the xml file.

can't find the xml file now strange..

zanedev commented 11 years ago

okay relative path was weird with DIR_BASE.File::getRelativePathFromID, must be an issue with the latest c5 or something. It was appending the relative path twice.

Can you please tell me where to get the c5 export xml? The one in the admin dashboard does not include the content just the schema so that doesn't seem to be it. Is it an xml mysql dump? Does it need to be all tables or any special format?

Well i ended up importing from the rss xml feed instead. unfortunately it doesn't put them in month/day folders like the newest version of problog is doing and it also doesn't include images or comments. bummer..

I hardcoded the direct path to the xml file in the controller.php file and got the xml file to import. However, I have the same issue with the posts' content. The pages get created with titles and descriptions, but not the post content. If you click through to a page, there is no post content. Is there a particular xml tag to wrap the content in aside from ?
