 * Hello,
    As I was using previously DMSGuestbook, I really appreciate the ability
   to import comments from my old guestbook. 🙂
 * I found that your plugin also allows to import comments from pages of the site…
   but why only those of pages, and **why not the comments of the posts?**
 * Thanking you in advance if you can do something here, as [there](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/posters-name-in-the-widget?replies=6)
 * To thank you, I can send you the French translation of the plugin, that I completed
   for the admin’ part.
    Can you give me an email address to send it?

 * Hi, about the translation, you can send it to [marcel@timelord.nl](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/import-comments-from-posts/marcel@timelord.nl?output_format=md)
 * Thanks for using the plugin.
 * About importing from posts, I would expect that if people use WP comments for
   a guestbook, that they used a page for that, because that page would be part 
   of the website structure, like a page is meant to be.
    A post is part of your
   blogroll, you don’t put a guestbook there. It drop down slowly and fades away.
   Now, if there’s a user that really has a guestbook on a post, I would be willing
   to look into it :). But untill then I don’t see that need.

 * Well, maybe I badly explained… I wanted that the comments on the articles can
   be repatriated as well as those from pages. It would be useful for some on my
   website.
    But this is not very important. The best thing is to keep messages 
   from the old DMSGuestbook.
 * I send you really soon the French translation.

 * Hi,
    In 1.3.1 you can now import from a page, from a post, or just all comments.

 * Sounds Great!
    I can not believe all the work you have done about this plugin.
   I will soon check if the French translation must be modified. See you.
