Geeklog

I would like to convert my slash.dot weblog to Geeklog. Most of my content are just contributions and do not include comments and threads.

1. Have anyone done this before and do you know of any conversion tools available to port my existing database across?

2. Can you share with me your experience in your conversion?

Thanks

Last time I tried installing geeklog I noticed that geeklog wants a database all to itself and as a result I lost a lot of tables in my hosted mySQL database. Fortunately I only had test sistes on that server :) For those of use whose sites are hosted on remote servers an extra database has cost implications. I have noticed how software such as phpnuke and postnuke manages with a set of tables denoted by a chosen prefix. Would it be possible for geeklog to do the same? Could this be put on the request list for the legendary version 1.4 Thanks Tony Carr

Hi folks,

Using Geeklog 1.3.4 which I\'m thoroughly impressed with, however there\'s just one feature I\'ve not managed to make work correctly as yet - and that\'s the Emailing Topics for User option, I\'ve setup CRON to run the \'emailgeeklogstories\' script as php (which I\'ve corrected the paths etc in) but when the job executes on it\'s daily rotation I\'m emailed the following error from CRON:

#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by
(output started at
/path-to-geeklog/public_html/email.php:2) in
/path-to-geeklog/system/lib-sessions.php on line 150
Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by
(output started at
/path-to-geeklog/public_html/email.php:2) in
/path-to-geeklog/system/lib-sessions.php on line 162

(the paths in the real error are correct, but changed here to path-to-geeklog).

email.php is the modified version of the emailgeeklogstories script (the only modification being the path to geeklog) and it\'s in the public_html folder for the geeklog installation, the line in my crontab looks like this:

0 20 * * * lynx -dump http://geeklog-url/email.php

(again, geeklog-url is actually my domain name in the crontab ;) ).

Anybody have any ideas? Sorry about the lengthy post - I\'m too lame to work this one out for myself, though ;)
