When trying to import bblog-entries I encountered some problems:
1. After entering all information I got this message:
Starting import procedure...
Tabelle 'hanno.serendipity_authors' existiert nicht Import failed:
(which is in english "table 'hanno.serendipity_authors' doesn't exist")
now, hanno was the name of the bblog-db. So the importer tries to import into the bblog-db, not into the s9y-db. It only works if you have the bblog and s9y-tables in the same db.
2. All trackbacks were converted to comments. They should stay trackbacks after conversion, else the importer doesn't make much sense.

Re: Import Problem (bblog import)
Yes, the first error is sadly a bug in 0.8, which has yet only been fixed in our 0.9 release.
About the trackbacks: How does bblog differ from trackbacks to comments? The importer uses this query:
and I thought that would suffice to only get comments. I'm not familar with bblog, so I only created the importer reverse engineering the database...

Code: Select all
"SELECT * FROM {$this->data['prefix']}comments WHERE type = 'comment'

I sadly did not have a testing base for importing trackbacks; so no, this is currently nto supported by the importer.

Import of Trackbacks
I'll have a look at it and will try to implement a patch for trackback-import.
