Import Blogger into Movable 4 type using BloggerImporter plugin

For work I need to import a Blogger blog into Movable Type 4.

  • Download the BloggerImporter plugin.
  • Install to /mt/plugins
  • Login to blogger, use menu Tools -> Import.
  • Choose “Importing From” field as “Blogger”
  • Fill in login information
  • Got an error — Error: Can't locate XML/LibXML.pm in INC
  • resolved error by installing Perl XML::LibXML. (see below)
  • Tried process again, gives processing screen.
  • let it run about 10-15 minutes for a few hundred posts.
  • Import done. It worked!

If you get the error “Can’t locate XML/LibXML.pm” you need to install the Perl module. On Ubuntu use aptitude.

sudo apt-get install libxml-libxml-perl
