#15760 assigned defect (bug)

LiveJournal Importer mishandles some <lj-cut> and <lj user=""> expressions

Reported by: designsimply Owned by: westi
Priority: normal Milestone: WordPress.org
Component: Import Version:
Severity: normal Keywords: livejournal importer
Cc: sfllaw

Description

There is a note on plugins.trac ticket 1231 that says this should be handled in core.trac instead, so I'm cross-posting it here. The patch and ticket were originally added by a-bishop:
​http://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1231

Reproduction steps: 1. Create a LiveJournal? entry that has <lj user="foo" /> in it. Note that this is XML-ish 2. Try to use the livejournal-importer on this post.

Bug The <lj user="foo" /> gets ignored because the regular expression is too strict.

I've attached a patch that makes LiveJournal? Importer recognize the XML-ish version.
