Import entries via RSS?
Hi. I’ve searched the forum for an answer to this so hopefully I didn’t miss a previous post about it.
I have a blog on a free blogsome server that I want to move to TP. Unfortunately, TP doesn’t support blogsome as an import option and I don’t have access to the database settings for my free blogsome blog so I was wondering if there is any way to import posts (and comments if I’m reaaally lucky) into TP using the RSS feed?
Is there a plugin to do this or am I out of luck and resigned to having to cut and past my old entries?
I’m not a coder by any means so any advanced scripting or tech stuff will probably go straight over my head although I’m comfortable hacking the TP code if I have clear instructions…as a very last resort.
As an addition, I’ve downloaded each of my posts using ecto but the format they are exported in – which is below – is very basic:

Is there any way to import this format?
