Importing Posts from Blogger to Drupal

Importing posts from blogger to Drupal is a piece of cake if you have the feeds module installed.

All you need is the common RSS XML parser setting and the field mappings to Drupal's own core blog module.

A working importer configuration (which too can be imported) is given here. The node author can be changed here, or in the node processor configuration settings.

PS: You can use blogger's backup setting to first export all your posts as an XML file.
