Just a note on this problem:

When you export your blog entries from godaddy’s service you can do a quick find and replace in your favorite text editor to make importing the entries into WordPress go smoothly.

Here is a breakdown of the steps to getting all of your content imported smoothly:

Step 1: Export your content from Godaddy’s Quick Blogcast – make sure to check the boxes for entries, comments, etc. Download this file to a convenient location.

Step 2: Open the file in a text editor that has a Find and Replace function. Use this to find “STATUS: Published” and replace it with “STATUS: Publish”.

Step 3: Import into WordPress using the Movable Type / Typepad setting.

Step 4: Enjoy your new, superior blogging platform.

Thanks to Anonymous above for figuring out the problem.

I am looking for the same thing.

I would like users to provide a username and password when they sign up instead of making up a username.

I haven’t looked into the code yet, but searching the site has turned up no information.

Would this be as simple as modifying something in wp-login.php to make the email address be written to the DB as the email address AND the username?
