I wonder if Nasri still loves Palace so much. Karma is a bitch.

Yesterday I started to move my tumblr posts to Ghost and although now that I finished it seems easy it required a lot of work, mostly because I didn’t want to migrate all the content on that tumblr blog only a handful of posts so it kind of became an exodus.

• Using the Mass Post Editor provided by tumblr I went through the archives and selected the posts I wanted to migrate and then added the “ghost” tag to them.
• Then I installed XAMPP on my Linux machine running elementary OS and on top of it I installed Wordpress.
• Using the tumblr importer by Wordpress I waited for a little bit more than an hour and once all my post were on Wordpress I turned the “ghost” tag into a category and then deleted everything outside this category.
• Oh look! It turns out Ghost won’t handle the images on Wordpress so I did as the people from Ghost suggested and signed up for a free account on Cloudinary and got all my images stored on their servers.
• Exported the Wordpress xml because for some reason the Ghost plugin was generating a blank JSON file.
• Installed wp2ghost and converted the Wordpress xml file to a JSON compatible with Ghost.
• Via the Ugly Debug Tools imported the JSON recently generated and voilá!

This post will be seem on tumblr so this is how my Ghost blog is looking right now.

I know it doesn’t seem like a lot of work to do but since I didn’t know anything about Ghost and had ages without using Wordpress or even coding it turned out to be a hard task. Were there easier ways to do it? I hope there are not, it would make me feel like and idiot. Anyway… I will start writing more: code and trash.

Now, to have fun with Ghost!

The most important Colombian writer who ever lived died today aged 87. He’s also the only Colombian to ever win a Nobel Prize, his most prolific work: One Hundred Years of Solitude. His name: Gabriel García Márquez.

The Colombian president spoke in all national TV channels and declared national mourning for 3 days; in which all government institutions should hoist the flag at half-mast.

You will never be forgotten, Gabo.

The beauty and simplicity of @TryGhost can’t be matched by any of the blogging platforms out there. Plus, it’s more fun!
