+# Importing Commnets
+
+**Note**: Contributrions to this section are welcomed!
+
+When moving to Pelican and the Pelican Commnet System, it may be desireable to move over your comments as well.
+
+The scritps to support this are found in the `import` directory.
+
+## Blogger
+
+Blogger is good in that it will give you an export of everything, but the bad news is it's one giant XML file. XML is great if you're a computer, but a bit of a pain if you're a human. 
+
+The code I used to export my comments from Blogger is found at [blogger_comment_export.py](https://github.com/MinchinWeb/pelican-plugins/tree/master/pelican_comment_system/import/blogger_comment_export.py).
+
+To use it
+yourself, you will need to first adjust the constants at the beginning of the 
+script (lines 26-33) to point to your Blogger XML export and where you want
+the comments to be exported to. You will also need to install `untangle`
+(available through pip -- `pip install untangle`).
+
+Comments will be exported into folders matching
+the Blogger slug of the post. The email for all authors will be `noreply@blogger.com`. The other file created will be `authors.txt`
+which lists the various comment authors, and a link to the profile
+picture used on Blogger. These pictures will need to be manually downloaded
+and then confiugred using the `PELICAN_COMMENT_SYSTEM_AUTHORS` setting.
+In my case, that looked like this:
+
+```python
+# in pelicanconf.py
+PELICAN_COMMENT_SYSTEM_AUTHORS = {
+    ('PROTIK KHAN', 'noreply@blogger.com'): "images/authors/rabiul_karim.webp",
+    ('Matthew Hartzell', 'noreply@blogger.com'): "images/authors/matthew_hartzell.webp",
+    ('Jens-Peter Labus', 'noreply@blogger.com'): "images/authors/jens-peter_labus.png",
+    ('Bridget', 'noreply@blogger.com'): "images/authors/bridget.jpg",
+    ('melissaclee', 'noreply@blogger.com'): "images/authors/melissa_lee.jpg",
+    ('Melissa', 'noreply@blogger.com'): "images/authors/melissa_lee.jpg"
+}
+```
+
+The script was developed for Python 3.6, but should work on Python 3.4+
+without modification.
+
+For more information on this script on, you can read my
+[blog post](http://blog.minchin.ca/2016/12/blogger-comments-exported.html)
+where I introduced it.

+Export Comments from BLogger XML

+Takes in a Blogger export XML file and spits out each comment in a seperate
+file, such that can be used with the [Pelican Comment System]
+(https://bernhard.scheirle.de/posts/2014/March/29/static-comments-via-email/).
