Actually I know the creator of Thingamablog!
He's been working on this same issue with me for a while too. I'm not one to give up and just stand by and wait on my end though. I like to keep trying to solve the problem myself. He's coming out with a new version of the software soon and asked what I thought should be changed or added to the program and this is the biggest issue I have. The funny thing is, once I can ever get the stuff out of that Nucleus weblog and put in Thingamablog I won't ever have need of that again. So, I keep trying everything I can think of to solve it myself.
At the Nucleus CMS forum I did bring this issue up a few times, but there's a lot more folks there and it's a bit harder to get help than you'd think. Plus they just can't imagine why in the world I'd want to stop using Nucleus. (The truth is, I want to stop using MySQL altogether.
I need to practice what I preach.)
I found out how to make an XML file from the database in phpMyAdmin but my idea didn't work anyway.
Still working on it.
I'll figure something out.
Thanks Martin!
