Open atiq-cs opened 8 years ago

atiq-cs commented 8 years ago

I have installed and enable BlogML, External Import Export and Import Export modules. When I am trying to import from blogml file it is giving me.

Oops. Something went wrong ... sorry

I have tried numerous time and hitting the same error. I am thinking if things are so buggy why am I even considering to move to orchard.

BlogML is a different format than the Recipe format, which is what is expected by Import/Export. However, we should improve the Import code to handle unsupported formats gracefully.

Since I installed those modules those formats should be detected. Right?

Or can you point me toward right direction for importing from blogML format ?

I'm afraid the Import feature only supports recipes. I believe there is a separate module on the gallery that supports importing BlogML. Try googling Orchard + BlogML.
