• Hello,

    It would be great if someone could give me some advice on this! Here’s what’s going on:

    I’ve exported posts from my old 2.03 wordpress site and want to import them into a new installation (latest version of wp). I had a plugin for keywords in my old installation, and the keywords show up in the xml file like this:

    <wp:postmeta>
    <wp:meta_key>keywords</wp:meta_key>
    <wp:meta_value>bw,boy,grey</wp:meta_value>
    </wp:postmeta>

    I would like those keywords to be imported as tags, but it doesn’t work, since in the new version the tags look like this (I checked by exporting an xml file):

    <wp:tag><wp:tag_slug>boy</wp:tag_slug><wp:tag_name><![CDATA[boy]]></wp:tag_name></wp:tag>

    <wp:tag><wp:tag_slug>grey</wp:tag_slug><wp:tag_name><![CDATA[grey]]></wp:tag_name></wp:tag>

    So is there a way to make these old keywords appear as tags when I import them? Since the tags are separated in the code I cannot do it with the find and replace function in the xml file.

    Thanks so much!!

    Lotte
