Old Blog Entries Successfully Recovered
Great thanks to hf_linux, all old data of ~ on 40 has been recovered.
As for my old MT blogs, just export them from the old MT and then import them to the new MT. Works like a charm.
I have disabled comments and trackbacks of the old blogs. Now with the (hopefully good) antispam plugins along with MT3.31, i want to re-enable those feedback functions of old entries. A simple sed will do:
$ sed -e 's/ALLOW PINGS: 0/ALLOW PINGS: 1/' \
-e 's/ALLOW COMMENTS: 0/ALLOW COMMENTS: 1/' old.txt >new.txt
And then import the new one without any errors.
And for the nanoblogs, luckily they have the similar format to MT. So here's a small perl script to do the transfer:
#!/usr/bin/perl -wp
use strict;
my @month = ("", "Jan", "Feb", "Mar", "Apr", "May", "Jun",
"Jul", "Aug", "Sep", "Oct", "Nov", "Dec");
if (m/^DATE: /) {
my @time = split(' ');
my $i = 1;
while ($month[$i] ne $time[2]) {
$i++;
}
$_ = "DATE: $i/$time[3]/$time[6] $time[4]\n";
} elsif (m/^END-----/) {
$_ = "\n\n--------\n";
}
Plain text always rox. MT rox, also, indeed.
