How Does Comment Importing Work? Options

[John Wiegley]

Hello, I'm looking at the code for ImportExport.pm, and it sets authored_on when it sees DATE:

CODE

                        } elsif ($key eq 'DATE') {
                            my $date = __PACKAGE__->_convert_date($val) or return;
                            $entry->authored_on($date);

However, the code specifically loads the entry it's looking for based on created_on, not authored_on:

CODE

                        my $ts = $entry->created_on;
                        $entry = MT::Entry->load({ created_on => $ts,
                            blog_id => $blog_id });

How could this ever work? It certainly doesn't for me (4.23-en), because it rightfully complains for every entry that it couldn't find any entry with timestamp '' -- since created_on is not set for a newly allocated entry.

Wondering, John
