Import from wordpress - lucky - 2010-07-20
Hello
I remember that I have read that it should be possible to import post/pages from wordpress in zenphoro/page.
But I cant find the solution. Can someone please tell me?

On the admin overview page there is a button labelled "Wordpress Importer". I believe this was introduced in 1.3.0, so if you're running an older version, you'll need to update to use it.

Note this has not been tested with Wordpress 3 yet but unless they did not change the database completely it should work.

I have just upload zenphoto,so I think I have the newest. But I cant find the button.

Hello again
I found the button. But I get this message: ERROR: Could not connect to the Wordpress database - Query failed
I am sure I have written right db,u and pw. Because I open WP.config to look.

Hello
I have no double checked the data, and if it is the data which is written in wp.config.php for wordpress. its right.
But I still get the same error message when I try to import.

Is the Wordpress install on the same server using the same database server as the Zenphoto install? This is actually how it is tested.
Are you sure you have the right database prefix for the Wordpress tables?
Import from wordpress - lucky - 2010-08-05
Hello
No, they arent in the same server.
But where can I find the database prefix? I found this in wp-config: $tableprefix = 'wp';
I have one more issu, the tiny mce editir isnt working. I have enabled it, but it doesnt show up. I use ZP-Focus as theme.

Generelly host use a separate server for databases but is the Zenphoto installl you are trying to import using the same webspace? The importer has actually only been tested with both WP and ZP being installed on the same server using the same database server. If it is an external site you are trying to import from that site's host might not even allow external access to a database. It should be possible to add the server info to the database name (ask your host what that would be).
Regarding tinymce: More info please, what Zenphoto release for example, any errors etc.
