It worked!

Mar 10, 2022 20:36

All of my LJ entries appear to have imported over to Dreamwidth, woot woot!! I am surprised it worked because there are 19 years worth of entries. I checked a few random posts, including one from 2006, and all the photos appear to have made their way there too. None of the comments made it over, but that's okay. This is exciting ( Read more... )

Fantastic! I am haldoor over there too. Cross-posting doesn't work at the moment because of some crap LJ pulled, but you can always copy and paste from one to the other. The only tricksy part is pictures, which you'll need to load separately in each.

Ah yes, I meant cross-posting manually -- the other way would have been easy-peasy. But I should have clarified what I meant.

I will go and friend you over there too, just in case!

Glad it worked for you.

It'd been a while since I exported to DW so I knew there was some extra stuff here that hadn't made it over (cause LJ is my primary) but I was pleased to see everything over there.

And now I can exhale.

Right? We don't want to lose anything -- posts or people!

Definitely. I've been a little crazy about checking LJ today as if it's going to blink out of existence at any second. Last night I copied all of my icons into a folder just in case. I only need to do something with my "end of the year" scheduled entry.

I just realized that with all the commotion yesterday that I didn't even think about writing anything other than my morning journal. Whoops. New streak starts today, I guess.

I know what you mean. Even thought I've read that the whole Russians servers whatchamacallit doesn't meant what people think it means, I also don't trust very much these days. I decided to use this as an opportunity to downsize so I uploaded all the icons I wanted to save into DW and left the rest. I also had to save/send myself the things I wanted to save off my hard drive because of the new computer coming. It was a pretty crazy day, definitely.

Happy writing!

Yay give it another go for the comments. You can check the number of posts on your profile and see if it matches livejournal. Unless you already had some posts at dw.
