dotclear import don't set the post category

[olivM]

when importing from dotclear, all the posts are set only to the default category.

i think the problem is due to the fact that wp_set_post_categories do nothing if we pass it only one category (don't know why...)

( in /wp-admin/import/dotclear.php, line 479 )

				// Make Post-to-Category associations
				$cats = array();
				$category1 = get_category_by_slug($post_cat_name);
				$category1 = $category1->term_id;

should be

				// Make Post-to-Category associations
				$cats = array(get_option('default_category'));
				$category1 = get_category_by_slug($post_cat_name);
				$category1 = $category1->term_id;

Looks like there may be a similar issue with the TextPattern importer too.

I don't see how the code was ever meant to work.

It will never call wp_set_post_categories() as the array will always be empty.
