I can't seem to import squads from swshoebox.

1) Format problems:

The import instructions indicate that I should "View the squad on swShoebox (click on the squad name when you're in the Squad Builder section)." Problem. I can't click on the squad name while in the Squad Builder section. There is no hypertext squad name. For each squad name, there is a hypertext to edit, print, or delete. But I can't click on the squad name.

When I do access my swshoebox squads, they are not in the format indicated by the import instructions. The bloomilk instructions show a layout in which the squad title is listed twice ("Karrde's Dice"). No matter how I access my squads, I don't get the same layout.

As a matter of fact, the example link provided in the instructions doesn't seem to be right. Click the link to Karrde's Dice. The title isn't listed twice.


2) Problems when I cut/paste from swshoebox:

When I try to highlight text from the "title" to "user's comments," I end up highlighting a lot of the garbage in the righthand margin (squad stats section, cost/Hp ratio, swarm index etc). It's impossible to highlight down to "user's comments" without accidently capturing this stuff, too.

Any tips on how to get the import feature to work? 'Cause I can't. Cursing

It's certainly possible that swShoebox changed their layout since I built the import tool. I'll look into.

When I first joined this site, I tried to import my squads on the deal and it wouldn't work, no matter what I did.

No it's not. Sorry, this hasn't been a high priority for me. If it's important to people though, I can work on it at the expense of other stuff. I just need to figure out what people want more. :)

I'd love to have the Import from SWMM back.

I'd appreciate it a lot. Otherwise, I could just start my collection and squads over again on bloomilk which I'm not looking forward to doing.
Thanks so much for the effort you put into this site, shinja!
