Problem 1 – almost fixed
I almost fixed problem 1 myself.
The solution:
a) Open the mt export.txt file in Wordpad.
b) Copy all the text into a new Notepad text document.
c) Save the Notepad text document using “save-as” and selecting Encoding: UTF-8 in the “save-as” menu.
The result:
All my imported posts now have the right Icelandic characters.
Cannot create Icelandic authors!
The only problem is I cannot create an author with Icelandic characters. The author “Sigureur” becomes “Sigurur”
Can someone tell me why?
Problem 2 – Dates are still wrong.
Dates in the export file are in Icelandic format:
Example 1:
DATE: 09/02/2001 06:34:00 FH
(In English: September 2nd 2001 06:34:00 AM)
Example 2:
DATE: 07/28/2003 12:24:23 EH
(In English: July 28th 2003 12:24:23 PM)
(EH = PM; FH = AM)
