Migrating from Blogger to WordPress

Oct 29, 2009

I have been thinking of migrating my blog from Blogger to a WordPress-solution hosted on my own domain. After doing some research, I decided “what the heck”, and downloaded and installed the package. The installation went without a hitch, and I went on to find a decent theme for the blog. Having downloaded and installed a few themes.
 
I then went on to migrate my posts from Blogger to the WordPress blog. WordPress has a built-in tool to do this, which imports both posts, tags and comments. The only snag was that tags are not imported as tags, but rather as categories. Luckily; WordPress has a tool to convert tags to categories, and categories to tags.
 
Design-wise, it’s still a work in progress. It will probably see a few redos before I’m happy with what I’ve got, but I think it’ll get there eventually.
