WordPress to Telligent Community transfer

This question is not answered

I'm trying to find a way to import my WordPress blog entries into TC5. Does a solution for this exist? I assume Telligent would have something like this since a major part of the platform is blogs and WP is an alternative. WP's own panel has an import feature from 15+ formats.

  • Mark...did you find an answer to this by any chance?

  • Yes... well sort of. I downloaded BlogML from its SVN repo (http://www.codeplex.com/BlogML). I chose the version that works with Community Server 2008.5 (its an older version, 2.0 I think). I then added the code to my solution and added the TC5 DLLs for references instead of the CS 2008.5 DLLs. There were several areas where the C# client API changed from CS2008.5 to TC5 so I had to fix a few method calls to some webservices since the signatures changed. Once I did that, I compiled BlogML and it worked.
