I wish there was a way to link from , say, my original post on my still reachable Movable Type blog (which is now archive of my present blog on WordPress, into which I have imported all the prior MT posts …..but to people who arrive at a particular blog post via the original Movable Type link, I wish there was a way to link the comment area for that post over to the corresponding post in the WordPress blog. The WordPress import mechanism receives a Movable Type export file, and dumps all of the posts and its comments and trackbacks into a new WordPress post, but the ID’s don’t match, and so the only possible match would be on title (date would not work since I obviously often post more than once a day).
Since comments on MT broke and seem down for the duration, I would not want to miss out on any comment that someone might want to make after reading the MT blog post.
