Hi,
Can you please email info@klyp.co with your version of OctoberCMS, and Rainlab Blog?
Please also include the xml file if possible, so we can test further.
Thank you

Keep getting error "failed to open stream no such file or directory on line 147 of WPimporter.php" depressing because this used to work, but no longer does.

I have fixed all the errors that people have complained about here. I have improved it also by adding a markdown converter which will automatically convert the content from HTML to markdown.
Since, I don't know where the original repository is for this plugin, I have created one under my own account otherwise I would have submitted an official PR.

If getting path problem: Go to plugins/klyp/wpimporter/models/Wpimporter.php Change line 149 to $importXmlPath = $importXmlFile->getLocalPath();
For 'The slug format is invalid' error: Go to line 261 and typecast $wpChildren->post_name to string. Or just copy and paste below code:
if (!empty((string)$wpChildren->post_name)) { $postBlog->slug = (string)$wpChildren->post_name; } else { $postBlog->slug = Str::slug((string)$item->title);

Throws an error when importing. Seems to be related to the file path of the uploaded

file. -
