How to migrate from Z-blog to WordPress

The previous article introduces the method of migrating from movable type to wordpress, this article introduces the method of migrating from Z-blog to WordPress.

First use the Z-blog exported to the movable type to convert the Z-blog data to a file in movable type format, and then import the file from WordPress.

I don't like WordPress 2.0 's Movable type import method, although it looks simple, but the online Web upload file, for more than 2M large blog import is a nightmare, so I recommend the use of WordPress 1.5 import method, The blog data txt file upload through FTP, and then execute the import program. I have personally tested, its in WordPress 2.0 is also working properly, probably WordPress 2.0 database does not change it.

In addition, if you want to continue using Z-blog's original log address format so that search engines can continue indexing, you can force the WORDPRESSS URL to use the Z-blog address format. The specific setting is that permalinks is set to/post/%post_id%.html in Wordpresss, of course, WORDPRESSS hosts need to support Urlrewrite to use the above method, otherwise it will be invalid.
