Importing a community

[ffutures]

I'm wondering how easy it would be to import the sdaleconspiracy community I set up on Livejournal a few years ago - http://sdaleconspiracy.livejournal.com/profile

Since I'm the mod I presumably have to do it. Anyone know how?

http://dw-maintenance.dreamwidth.org/75631.html talks about the queue and how slow it is going.

This looks like he faq https://www.dreamwidth.org/support/faqbrowse?faqid=230 ?

But I know nothing about this.

OK, looks like it's working, but will take a while - I'll announce when it's done.

I did it for http://bearing-witness.livejournal.com/ which was set up on both LJ and DW but had acquired different comments on each site. Slow because of the current "last one out switch off the lights" import queue, but it got there after a couple of days. I have to go through and check it all worked properly, but that's a job for after Eastercon.

I'm still waiting for sdaleconspiracy to import entries and comments but it looks like it'll happen eventually. I'll probably make it read-only on Livejournal - it's not very active (as in I've made all of the posts in the last few years) so it won't hurt to shut it down there.
