Phase Two of Tumblr-to-WordPress migration.

So Phase One was bulk importing old posts and writing a wp-cron task to continue to import new posts: done and check.

Phase Two has been writing a second, daily, wp-cron task that:

1. deletes posts from Tumblr older than n days (currently 90, but I might bring it down later), and
2. imports Tumblr reblogs as trackbacks, and replies as comments.

So far so good, but this is the destructive part (i.e. if the plugin fucks up now, I can’t get back the content it deletes), so fingers crossed!

Phase Three will be actually opening up the WP blog, and redirecting the old Tumblr URLs in its direction. (… Probably.)

Phase Four is reintroducing the WordPress-to-Tumblr crossposting functionality.

Phase Six is profit. Too easy.

!!

That second half of Phase One is a thing I should do. IT IS SENSE MAKING. You are some kind of wordpress-Jedi. Or something.

Hah! I don’t know about that.

I can send you the plugin code if you want? It’s a bit of a mess, and it requires the OAuth module run in PHP… but it might help?

I’ll take it! 😀 herdivineshadow(at)gmail etc etc 

AWESOME.
