Hi All, I would like to transfer a Geeklog blog site to Wordpress. I've never done this before and don't know if the dbs are compatible, etc. I'll be using a WP template for the site, but would like to transfer everything (posts, pages, etc.) from geeklog. Any experience with this or thoughts about whether it can be done, comments, feedback, how tos, advice, etc. very much appreciated. Thanks!

Geeklog and Wordpress are two unrelated applications and so are their databases.

Not sure what import options Wordpress offers. The Movable Type "mtimport" format is widely used, for example, and there are converters to/from that format mentioned here.

Oh, and then there's this.

HTH

bye, Dirk

I think there were a few practical discussions and solutions on this forum before.
