Also, trackbacks don’t ever seem to be sent when they are added in an update rather than with the original post. That is, once the post is published, if I put a trackback URL in the trackback field and update, the trackback almost never is sent
Have I got some option set incorrectly?
]]>I read in an online post that I should replace a line of code with another to ensure that WordPress pulls in the Blogger Post IDs. Unfortunately I couldn’t find that line of code in the current blogger.php.
I’m going crazy trying to import over 5000 comments. HELP!
I’ve got the import-haloscan.php and I’ve loaded the Haloscan xml files into the correct directory but nothing’s happening.
]]>Here’s what I have done already:
I successfully ran the blogger import tool as described in import-blogger.php.
I looked at justinsomnia’s comment importing instructions (https://justinsomnia.org/2005/06/importing-haloscan-comments-into-wordpress/) and followed his blogger import and haloscan import instructions, to the tee.
When I clicked OK at the bottom of the haloscan import tool, it reported that 0 comments had been imported. I have 555 comments that should have imported. Any suggestions?
]]>To install HaloScan for WordPress:
Copy and paste the following code anywhere between the <HEAD> and </HEAD> tags in your template:
/<script type=”text/javascript” src=”https://www.haloscan.com/load/HALOSCANUSERNAME”> </script>/
Copy and paste the following code to your template, where you want the comment link to appear:
/‘);” target=”_self”><script type=”text/javascript”>postCount(‘<?php the_ID(); ?>’);</script> | ‘);” target=”_self”><script type=”text/javascript”>postCountTB(‘<?php the_ID(); ?>’); </script>/
Ok, this is very complicated for me because I’ve had a hard time using the codex help to isolate my main semiologic loop with the advanced changes Denis’ code obviously makes and the many files now in effect.
Truth is I can’t figure it out since I’m not sure which files and where, under theme dir the php files are tiny with almost nothing in them, under cms plugin dir the php files are huge and bewildering! etc.
Can someone help this noob out with some good detail?
I’d hopefully like the trackback link to come up maybe just before the horizontal div near the permalink, or under the permalink and email / comment links..
I know wordpress has pings, but I’d like to encourage other blogs hopefully with a trackback and I couldn’t find anything to turn on such a link so far.
edit: the code is messed by pasting, this is the instructions link,
