A Wordpress Plugin To Import Your ActiveRain Posts

THANK YOU! I have wanting to do this for a while.

After going ot Camp last weekend - I think this is VERY cool!

Hi Pam - I guess I am not sure why everyone thinks this is so great? Why would you really want to have all your content from AR at a blog that you own? I can see if you have made some exceptional posts you may want them at your wordpress site but all of them - NO WAY!! In fact you would be much better off creating a new post and just expounding on the topic of the original. It seems this is just the heard mentality to me but what do I know - LOL

Very interesting. I wondered if having all our AR post go to WP and Posterous was a benefit or not?

Pam I do not but like I said there are a few that are duplicates. I would much rather do it in reverse...write a great blog at MY OWN site and then maybe put it on AR with a link back to the original. That is good SEO driving traffic and link juice back to the originating source.

L&P,

thanks for reblogging this.  I wouldn't have seen it otherwise.

Hi Pam!  I hate that I missed this originally--I think this feature will allow me to move some of my timeless posts into my WP blog and gives me the ability for "re-write" them (tweak and make additions/changes).  I would likely do what Jeff Turner suggested and bring them over in draft mode so that I've got the basics of the 'new' posts there in WP and then begin to tweak them one-by-one, day-by-day.  Like Bill said, the backlinks will also allow for some improved SEO which, I think, is the reason that many are thrilled with this capability--rather than cutting and pasting our old AR posts into WP--that takes me too long!

Thanks for sharing / re-blogging this, Pam!  Hope you have a wonderful Memorial Day...
