Hello:
I am interested in using this plugin by I have noticed that if I export posts with manually related links applied and then attempt to reimport them into another wordpress blog, the link fields (where one inputs the links) display one character each from the <wp:meta_value> node in the Wordpress Extended RSS file (WXR; the xml based import/export format that wordpress uses). Let me give you an example:
On a post whose <wp:meta_value> node from the WXR file contains this (on export):
a:3:{i:0;s:44:"<a href="/?p=8">Another crosslinked post</a>";i:1;s:31:"<a href="/?p=1">Hello World</a>";i:2;s:31:"<a href="/?p=5">Danke World</a>";}
the first related link field will contain an "a", the second a ":", the third a "3" the fourth a ":" and so forth once the file is reimported.
The reason I am hoping to find a fix for this is twofold:
1) I am hoping to be able to reverse engineer this so that I can migrate content from an old (and really ridiculous and not worth naming) CMS to Wordpress and maintain the related links that exist in that system (I've already got that pretty much sorted except this one piece)
2) Once I've imported my content into a development environment and made sure my plugin stack and themes are working the way I want them to, I am hoping to be able to export everything and reimport it into a production environment (while maintaining a separate dev box)
I hope this isn't too confusing. One detail which may effect this is that I am using Wordpress-mu. I was really excited to find this plugin and have tried out a couple of your other offerings with resounding success.
Thanks for any help you may be able to offer.
