However, it is easy to modify it, so that it works with other LJ-based web sites, such as dreamwidth. In turn, dreamwidth supports fully functioning import from LJ. I have modified the plugin to support thrid-party LJ-based sites, and you can use it to import from, for example, dreamwidth. Since I haven’t understood, how to commit my changes here, I have made a modified plugin available on my github. Please google for “github asapegin livejournal-importer” (links are not allowed in the reviews). ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/2723c0bc77e1240a90845593127a2e3806a0e6a993086d115904c2a054c9b8e6? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Plugin cannot login to LJ](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-cannot-login-to-lj/)󠁿 [neyz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/neyz/) 23. mai 2017 Trying to start import, but plugin cannot login to my LJ, and does not import anything. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/f85aa8d9e151f33f8d382c5d81c326ccd2720f2060299c5cc726bcfbfc7ee45c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Comments are duplicating many times!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/comments-are-duplicating-many-times/)󠁿 [engelsit](https://profiles.wordpress.org/engelsit/) 3. sept 2016 Import completed successfully on 20 posts.
