How to migrate smooth to Ultraguest?

[jonelo]

I'm was searching for a free guestbook with captcha feature, because Spambots are attacking even guestbooks these days I was searching until I found Ultraguest

Well, now I would like to move my 85 valuable entries from my existing guestbook to Ultraguest. If I'm going to add them manually, there are at least two speed bumps:

- it will take some time to add them due to the timout blocker
- timestamps of all entries will change and I can't restore the timestamps to the real values, because entries in Ultraguest seems to be read-only.

I hope you have a few ideas for this challenge!? At least the ability to modify timestamps (or an complete entry) would be helpful for me.

Thanks,
jonelo

Hi Jonelo,

You will be able to edit messages (including timestamps) within a few days and I can turn off the timeout blocker for your guestbook while you add messages. Still a large job, but at least it addresses the "speed bumps"

Hi Andreas,

within a few days? This is indeed very good news - thank you very much
Yes, please turn off the timeout blocker for my guestbook while I'm adding messages. How about adding the blocker option to the Guestbook Options?

Thanks,
jonelo

The edit-message feature will be ready tomorrow. I might add the blocker option as a new feature, but that it a little further down on my list right now.

Please let me know which guestbook you are using and I'll turn of the blocker.

You are now able to edit messages in your guestbook, but for a variety of reasons I can not leave the timestamp open to edit. Since I promised you a feature that is not going to be avaialbe now or in the future, I am willing to manually change the timestamps for your guestbook. Just send me a private message with details.

Hi Andreas,

Your service is one of the best I've seen while researching guestbooks. I'd like to migrate to ultraguest but I have the same problem as jonelo. I've got 45 entries whose timestamps I'd like to keep original if possible. But it would be a lot of work for you to manually change them as well. Have you got any other suggestions?
