I’ve pretty much completed the transfer to WordPress from Movable Type now, and it went very smoothly. WP is very nice to work with, and I chose a very well constructed base theme (if I do say so myself) to work from, which helped. The only dicey parts were a) matching the file naming format of the posts I imported with their old format generated by MT; and b) removing some links from my (old) post titles, which was causing problems.
There’s one major to-do yet: figuring out how to save myself from my idiotic post-title method (i.e., the title is actually the first few words of the post). I think I have the solution (using some advanced CSS and a quick template edit), so we’ll see.
As always, if you notice anything strange let me know. It should be a million times easier to leave comments here than it has been in the past while.
