Okay, so I have it dumping the Blogger export into the comments table, and I even figured out how to strip out the hyperlink to the Blogger profile…
…but it’s dumping everything into the comments table, not just the comments, and it’s completely ignoring the post IDs I tried to force-feed it. There seems to be no rhyme or reason. The upshot is that my comments table gets filled with rows and rows of data, but none of it is actually connected to a post.
I’m getting closer, little by little. But this really underscores my complete lack of true coding ability. I’m pretty sure that if I had a basic idea of how to work with PHP and MySQL, I wouldn’t be having these issues.
