This script imports your entries from Textpattern into WordPress. It should be relatively painless, and we hope you're happy with the result.
To run this, you first need to edit this file (import-textpattern.php) and enter your Textpattern database connection details. Let's check if the database connection information works...
Everything seems dandy so far, let's get started!
It doesn't look like your database information is incorrect. Please re-edit this file and double-check all the settings.
First let's get posts and comments.
get_var("SELECT ID FROM $tableusers WHERE user_level = 10 LIMIT 1"); $category = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT cat_ID FROM $tablecategories LIMIT 1"); $posts = mysql_query('SELECT * FROM textpattern', $connection); while ($post = mysql_fetch_array($posts)) { // ID, AuthorID, LastMod, LastModID, Posted, Title, Body, Body_html, Abstract, Category1, Category2, Annotate, AnnotateInvite, Status, Listing1, Listing2, Section $posted = $post['Posted']; // 20030216162119 $year = substr($posted,0,4); $month = substr($posted,4,2); $day = substr($posted,6,2); $hour = substr($posted,8,2); $minute = substr($posted,10,2); $second = substr($posted,12,2); $timestamp = mktime($hour, $minute, $second, $month, $day, $year); $posted = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $timestamp); $content = $post['Body_html']; $title = $post['Title']; $post_name = sanitize_title($title); $wpdb->query("INSERT INTO $tableposts (post_author, post_date, post_content, post_title, post_category, post_name, post_status) VALUES ('$author', '$posted', '$content', '$title', '$category', '$post_name', 'publish')"); // Get wordpress post id $wp_post_ID = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT ID FROM $tableposts ORDER BY ID DESC LIMIT 1"); // Now let's insert comments if there are any for the TP post $tp_id = $post['ID']; $comments = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM txp_Discuss WHERE parentid = $tp_id"); if ($comments) { while($comment = mysql_fetch_object($comments)) { // discussid, parentid, name, email, web, ip, posted, message // For some reason here "posted" is a real MySQL date, so we don't have to do anything about it // comment_post_ID comment_author comment_author_email comment_author_url comment_author_IP comment_date comment_content comment_karma $wpdb->query("INSERT INTO $tablecomments (comment_post_ID, comment_author, comment_author_email, comment_author_url, comment_author_IP, comment_date, comment_content) VALUES ($wp_post_ID, '$comment->name', '$comment->email', '$comment->web', '$comment->ip', '$comment->posted', '$comment->message')"); } } } upgrade_all(); ?>All done. Wasn’t that fun? Have fun.
