HTTP 301

It's been a while since I've set up WP. I'd forgotten how 2003 it is when it comes to syndication. All things considered, I like WP the best of all the blogging tools I've used, but why, why, why is it still using Atom 0.3? They've definitely got some development issues, but in spite of the dark underbelly of WP, it does have a nice interface and is easy to use for most tasks.

I still have to get my old posts imported, but I think I'll probably just copy and paste. There's only about 20, half of which can probably just dissolve into the æther.

    WP's import function supports import from an RSS feed.

    I believe there are problems with importing in safe mode. This is what I'm told anyways. I'm not all that concerned. There's not much worth keeping.

    I gave up trying to import using every trick I could find and just linked my old MT archives in my sidebar. I did hack the wp-atom.php script to output atom 1.0. If you want it, let me know.
