First Dreamwidth post!
Apr. 21st, 2009 10:45 amI got a Dreamwidth invite this morning, so this is actually a cross-post from Dreamwidth. Let's see if it works...

alasen ! It's just like first day of LJ again!
Edit: I should have read this earlier!
"A note: if you've used the Privacy tab of the Manage Settings page to set a default entry security level that's more restrictive than the security level on the entry you're importing from the other site, the entry will import using your Dreamwidth security level, not the security level on the other site.".

So LJ import seems to have gone well. Some observations:
- It was fast! About 6 minutes to do the whole lot!
- Comments preserved and look pretty good.
- Only my main icon was imported. Not too much hassle to manually add the rest.
- I could have sworn the privacy settings were preserved, but it appears everything is flocked at the moment. Maybe because I fiddled with the default privacy settings, but I assumed that was for new posts only.
- The extra settings for post restrictions look very good.
