    Folks,
    Modx Articles summary at (http://modx.com/why-modx/applications/modx-blogging-the-wordpress-and-blogger-alternative/) touts the ability to import blogs from Tumblr but only WordPress and Blogger are available in the import option dropdown.
    Did I miss a download, screw up the installation, or has the Tumblr filter not yet been released?
    Thanks for your help and suggestions,
    Exokarp

      Importing from Tumblr is not yet available. That page is incorrect.

        Thanks for the update.
        Will you post to this thread when the Tumblr resource becomes available and/or when it is scheduled for release?

          While Shaun gets around to it, you could have a shufty at doing it yourself. The WordPress importer is here /core/components/articles/model/articles/import/articlesimportwordpress.class.php - to give you an idea of what's going on.

          Then you'd need to add the new import service to the manager, which is adding whatever option you want to line 20 of /assets/components/articles/js/container/articles.import.window.js

          I think. YMMV.

            Hello,
            I search around and wonder if there is a propper way to import a bunch of articles including comments and tags (in a container) into a latest Revo installation?
            I understood that Provisioner just imports articles without tv.tags or the entire site (not so fine for me).
            importX does not convert the right formats?
            And "articles" seemed to be fine in this case but only imports WP or blogger. Modx only to sort in given recources?
            Is rough export/import of "_site_content" and "_site_tmplvar_contentvalues" an option?
