Importing Comments from Disqus

Meh provides a built-in CLI tool to import comments from Disqus, making it easy to migrate your existing comment system.

Exporting from Disqus

Before you can import comments into Meh, you need to export them from Disqus:

1. Log in to your Disqus admin panel
2. Go to your site's admin section
3. Navigate to the "Community" tab
4. Click on "Export" in the sidebar
5. Request a data export
6. Wait for the export to be prepared (you'll receive an email)
7. Download the XML file

Importing to Meh

Once you have your Disqus export XML file, you can import it using the meh command line tool:

./meh disqus path/to/your/disqus-export.xml

For multi-site setups, specify the site name:

./meh --site blog2 disqus path/to/your/disqus-export.xml

Notes

• Disqus does not export E-Mail addresses, so imported comments will not have an associated E-Mail address.
• It worked for me™ but your mileage may vary. You can always import into a new site to test it out before importing into your main site.
