Good Article Pinal!
Pinal,
Can you send the script for automation as well? Thanks in advance.
My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .
net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because
of the expenses. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been
using Movable-type on numerous websites for about a year and am nervous about switching to another platform.
I have heard very good things about blogengine.
net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it?
Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
