No means to fill user_id when importing comments?

    I just got to the point in my database migration to WordPress of doing comments and discovered that your import into comments option doesn’t include the ability to import the comment user_id.

    I had already gone to the trouble of importing users and then exporting a mapping from old user id’s to the new WordPress ones but unfortunately your interface doesn’t appear include the comment user_id as a target field to update when I go import my remapped comments table.

    I guess I’ll have to find another way to do that…

    Well, after looking around for a bit for another plugin just for this part of my data migration, I gave up and was thinking about importing the user_id into the unused comment_karma field and programmatically moving it over where it belongs. But happily I was able to modify your plugin code to include the user_id in the comment import mapping. So, thank you!

    I still suggest that it would be nice to include the user_id in the comment import but perhaps you were concerned about somebody making a mess of things with user ids. Anyway, thanks again. This really is a great import/export plugin!
