 Hello,

 I am using the following PHP script lines:
 {{{
  $category_id = get_cat_ID( $row['title'] );
  // Get the URL of this category
  $category_link = get_category_link( $category_id );
  $j2wp_post['post_content'] =  substr( $j2wp_post['post_content'], 0,
 $lnk_pos) . 'href="' . $category_link . '" ' . substr(
 $j2wp_post['post_content'], $post_lnk_end + 1);
 }}}
 they create the subsequent error in the assignment:
 {{{
 $j2wp_post['post_content'] =

 Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to
 string
 }}}
 As there is no error in the assignment and I found a lot of hints for the
 categories - one of this two fundtions creates this error.
