Convert WordPress Hosted Blog to BlogEngine.NET

Question

I look at what is needed to transition from wordpress.com to BlogEngine.NET or a similar blog. I saw a tool to replace export.php so that it exports your Wordpress site in BlogML format so that it can be easily imported into BlogEngine.NET, however I would not want to need to install php / wordpress so that I can import the backup copy from wordpress.com, and then use the export from my local Wordpress to have a BlogML file.

Are there any tools that convert the wordpress file? Is there another blog that will import the wordpress file?

Change: . As for the other blog providers, I am open to them if they are based on .NET, preferably C #.

Answer 1

Are there any tools that convert the wordpress file?

wordpress.com exports to XML, so it might be easier than using feeds or otherwise capturing html and parsing it. Navicat supports XML in PHPMyAdmin, which exports SQL.

Is there another blog that will import the wordpress file?

Are you open to using platforms other than BlogEngine?

I don’t know a single tool, but you can analyze the contents. An example of a funny experiment;)

URL- : yourblog.wordpress.com/year/month; yourblog.wordpress.com/2009/11. div id = "content". div, , "post", href H2.
