  I’m trying to import a few hundred blog posts from a MySql-based website. I was able to manually build a WordPress XML file that is importing correctly. However, many of the dates are in the years 2006-2008 and WordPress seems to be barfing on these and displaying “-0001”. Any ideas?

  Hi there,

  I’ve responded to your private Support ticket via e-mail. Have you received it? Can you check your Spam/Junk mail folder to see if it was accidentally put there by your mail server?

  I checked everywhere. I didn’t get it.
