tgles,

If you are looking to do an import, do an import to a standalone version of wordpress, then follow this guide to move from a standalone wordpress to a joomla.

Thanks Rafael,

This workaround is working.

Another option is to make a table dump of WP standalone site. (Without wp_options table). Rename 'wp_' to 'jos_wp_' within this dump file and import this into the database.

For me the workaround is ok, but it's more convenient to have import/export tabs in wp.
