Migrating from blogger to Wordpress can I keep my ID comments?
I originally was on blogger when I imported my comments into ID. I did this early on when it was still experimental and I lost all my commenter's names on my ID. I sucked it up with the hopes of it being fixed soon per Jon. They did fix the problem with the new importer but I was stuck where I was. Fine I lived with it.
Now I am upgrading to my own hosted WP server and I can not have my existing comments show up due to different post id's. Now I have the old and new post ID's but ID said they can not help me.
Maybe someone else out there can get me out of comment hell? I don't seem to be getting anywhere with Jon or Michael.

Inappropriate?How about exporting your comments to xml, importing them to wordpress (somehow, not certain how this can work) and then importing them to IDC from there?
It might be a painstaking procedure but it could work.
I don't think wordpress can import comments from blogspot either (outside of IDC that is)
I’m uncertain

Inappropriate?Did you ever manage this? I'm in a similar situation now (for a friend) and I don't see how to import the XML into wordpress.2 Comments Add a comment

We got a custom plugin that did all the heavy lifting. Let me know if you want it and I can send it over. Or if you are more comfortable contact ID support. They were VERY helpful in the end.
Good Luck! -
