Help With Radio?

7 May 2003

This may wind up on Userland’s support and discussion forum, but I’m going to take a shot here, first. This is about what I want to do with my weblogs. Here goes:

  1. Clarification: when using Radio, any entry you make is saved within the directory or folder structure that Radio places on your local PC. Right?
  2. #1 is true even if during the course of using Radio you change the host or the domain or both to which Radio entries upstream; right? In other words, whatever got written using that copy of Radio on that PC is saved in the folder structure even if the entries upstreamed to Domain XYZ at Host 1 for 6 months, then went to Domain ABC at Host 2 for 3 months. Right?
  3. Assuming #1 & #2 are true, an attempt to ”import” Radio entries into Movable Type from Radio’s normal directory structure on the local PC should result in all of the entries being picked up. Right?
  4. At that point, one could ”erase” all entries from the local copy of Radio, begin a new set of entries on the Userland server or at the host and domain of one’s choice. Right?
  5. Has anyone written a procedure that takes those entries out of Radio and into a Movable Type weblog? Let’s assume I began using Movable Type in October of 2002. Is there a procedure which will establish entries in Movable Type from the Radio entries that were done during the 9 months prior to October?
  6. I want my old Radio entries to become entries in Movable Type so that I have one continuous weblog from January of 2002 to now. Then, I want to start using Radio to produce another weblog for a completely different purpose from this one. Tips? Tricks? Help?
