Hello,

I attempted to import 54,721 Echo comments to WordPress but received the following error:

Couldn’t determine the correct item to attach this comment to. Given URL: https://yehudamoon.com/index.php?date=2012-03-23.

I have already created posts for each of the entries that the original Echo comments mapped to. For instance, the WordPress equivalent URL of the above will be (after publication):

https://yehudamoon.com/03122012/

I’m guessing that somehow I need to convert the original query string parameter (?date=2012-03-23) to the new one (03122012).

Do I open the XML file in Excel and do a global replace?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Rick

While trying to import echo comments I get the following message:

Hello,

I intend to test and use this plugin, that seems to be exactly what I am looking for.

But, since I am an old user of JS-kit echo comments (that was Haloscan before) and my blog was on a RapdWeaver platform (I recently switch to WordPress), it seems that my export files, from JS-kit dashboard, could be not directly useful.

So I need to know what export file informations are necessary for the plugin work.

Thank you (and sorry for my rough english)

I have a handful of comments that returned this error:
“Couldn’t determine the correct item to attach this comment to. Given URL: .”

I’d like to tweak the .xml so they import properly. How can I identify which comment these are referring to?

Hi! I just tested out the plugin and it did a good job of filtering out dupe comments, but some of the comments it did import all showed up as Anonymous. Specifically it skipped over this field: <author>fname lname</author>

I think the   is breaking it.
