Sometimes data imports into WordPress can be a pain, but most of the time, it's pretty darn easy. In a previous project I had to go through the trouble of outputting WXR files and then importing those, but it's really a lot easier if you do a direct MySQL to WordPress import using the WordPress API. I did one this morning for Bergler, a client of ours, and wanted to quickly walk you through how I did it, as it's something I guess some of you can benefit from.
