Easy Peasy
by fallingletters·7 months ago

Just wanted a quick way to export comments on my personal blog, so I could do some analysis on who has been commenting the longest, who has left the most comments, etc. Did exactly what I wanted with little fuss!

Not working: Access denied

Installed it on both sites. Exported from one site, then tried to import the file—got a loading bar followed by an “Access Denied” message. Even if it had worked, there was no option to select which blog post to import it into. Useless.

I was sweating trying to figure out how to export just Comments from my website. After learning it couldn’t be done, God put on my heart to look for a plugin. And I found this one! It did exactly what I needed it to do and I am so grateful for. Kudos to the developers!

Exactly what I needed
by unfootprint·1 year ago

Needed to export all comments, to see more easily if there were genuine comments in between thousands of spam comments. Exported it to CSV in one click, imported the CSV in Excel, and voila. Perfect plugin. Uninstalled it because there were no genuine messages, so we disable comments completely now.
