When I moved my entire blog into this domain and changed software from Blogger Beta to Wordpress, I faced a big problem, how I am going to move my posts from Blogger to Wordpress? I was looking for some Wordpress plugins to do that work. It was not a really tempting idea to move all my posts just using copy+paste method. Well, I did not find any good plugins to do that job (from Blogger Beta) . But I was not looking very hard after all.
But I discovered a very easy and fast solution to move all my posts+comments and categories from Blogger Beta to Wordpress. First you have to create account to Wordpress.com, creating account takes about 1 minute. After your account is ready you can play with your new Wordpress blog. We only want to import our Blogger beta posts so go to “Manage” tab and choose “Import”. Choose “Blogger” and after that “Authorize” and grant access to your Blogger beta blog. After that you just need to press “Import” and all your posts and comments are imported to your new Wordpress blog. After that, you have to do “Export” from your current Wordpress.com blog to get posts and comments to your real Wordpress blog. Export all posts to xml file and go to your real Wordpress blog (in my case http://tjantunen.com) . Choose “Manage” tab and “Import” then choose Wordpress, after that you just need to find previously generated xml file from your computers hard drive and that’s it! All your posts, comments and categories are now imported. And you did not need any plugins to do this.
I hope that this will help someone who is in same situation that I was when moving from Blogger Beta to Wordpress.
