@kaiser: is there a decent fork of wp-importer anywhere?

or some sort of a patch queue repo

of goodies

@lkraav no. I wouldn't even know whom to ping at core team to fix that.

Bug free fork of the WP_Importer. /Cc @Ikraav @MichaelEcklund

If anyone wants to add a composer.json, I'd be happy to accept a PR

you the man

I know ;)

so i recall a gsoc project to improve wp importer

me not

gsoc.frederickding.com/development/tag/importer

perhaps it makes sense to get this guy into the loop

wptavern.com/update-on-the-wordpress-importer

I just recall that I somewhere had a working XML importer Drupal > WP... just can't find it.

@kaiser would you like to restart the repo with the fork of the current wp-importer codebase and then laying the error elimination commit on top of that? i'd like to know what's done for it

no

you can diff the files if you want.

i wonder why this is empty github.com/wp-plugins/wordpress-importer

shouldn't the repo name at least be the same?

@lkraav I noticed that with another plug-in I tried looking up on GitHub mirror. Never found out why, but the problem isn't unique to the importer plug-in.

/**
 * Empty function usable by plugins to output empty dashboard widget (to be populated later by JS).
 */
function wp_dashboard_empty() {}

core

@kaiser needs unit test

:)
