Exporting V1 entries from V2 now actually works!

This was a bit trickier to do than it might seem at first, but I’ve finally gotten around to making it possible to export all of your entries from V2, even if you have a bunch of writing on V1, as long as you have your accounts connected.

There are still some edge cases around supporting non-English alphabets that is difficult for me to test, so if you wrote on V1 in a non-English language could you go and check your exports to see how those look?

To test it out, go to your Account and pick a month from the past that included writing on V1. The full list of months should now be on that page, for easier access. I don’t like pushing down all of the stuff with cheat days and streak patches, but it is what it is for now. From the month page, scroll to the bottom and click the Export button.

If you get anything that looks wrong, can you email it to me at support@750words.com with the subject “Export issues” and include a screenshot of a portion of your writing that was not exported properly?

And if you go back and things all look great, let me know here in the comments!

For a glimpse into the distant past, here’s what the export of my very first entry on this site, from December 13th, 2009 (!) looks like. It goes on much longer but I will spare you the internal monologue of me talking to myself about building this site.
