This script imports your entries from Textpattern into WordPress. It should be relatively painless, and we hope you're happy with the result.
To run this, you first need to edit this file (import-textpattern.php) and enter your Textpattern database connection details. Let's check if the database connection information works...
Everything seems dandy so far, let's get started!
It looks like your database information is incorrect. Please re-edit this file and double-check all the settings.
First let's get posts and comments.

Wasn’t that fun? Have fun.
