Re: New Blog Plugin

I used a couple of URL rewrite rules to do a 301 redirect for old URLs,
rather than inserting the redirect records into farFU.

With the Wordpress comments you can probably do an export and then a
find/replace to "fix" any URLs. The Disqus import format that I export from
BlogCFC also included an additional element "<dsq:thread_identifier>" which
is a UUID used to identify the thread, I'm not sure if you can add
something like that to the export that comes directly out of WordPress
though, I haven't checked.

Hope that helps :)


cheers,
Justin
