Hi there,
I’m using the MT import utility to import some blog entries, and it seems I’m unable to import data into custom fields. I set up WYGWAM to be the text editor for the body and summary fields, so I had to use custom fields. But when I go to import, those fields do not show up as ones available that I can import my data into. I also tried using the $extra_fields option in cp.mt_import.php, but got the same results. Is this by design, or should I be able to do it?
Thanks!
Kevin

I think I got this fixed. Well, more of a workaround. I didn’t realize I could just simply change the default field group. So I just changed the default Body and Summary fields to WYGWAM instead of textarea and that achieved what I was looking for. Thanks though!
