Plugin: FeedGrab

Hi Andrew,

Great plugin!

Any word on 2.0 compatibility?

Hi all,

I am currently testing a new module for EE 2.0 to replace the FeedGrab, CSVGrab and XMLGrab plugins.

For more details, and if you’d like to help test it, please visit:

DataGrab for ExpressionEngine 2.0

Thanks, Andrew

Looks great, Andrew! Very excited!

Thanks for all your hard work!! It’s much appreciated.

Hi,

I’m having some problems with this plugin. I’ve got it set up and when I run the update template it does create some new posts, as I can see the titles listed under the ‘Edit’ menu. However when I click on the items it then says:

“Error You have tried to access a section that does not exist.”

Also, every time I run the template it gets all the posts, not just new ones.

Any ideas what’s I’m doing wrong?

Pete

Thanks for a great plugin!

I had a problem with getting data out of nested xml-tags, that I thought I would share. Picasa serves its tags like this:

<item>
    <media:group>
        <media:keywords>Sommerfest'09</media:keywords>
    </media:group>
</item>

In order to get to that information, the use a category_field like this:

category_field="media:group_keywords"

Hi, I’m working on using FeedGrab to transfer info from Blogger to Expression Engine 1.6.9, and it seems to work except the most important part, the content. Blogger use this tag

<content type='html'>

and I can’t get it transfered, I tried with ‘content’ only, but in the transfer process it only ended up giving all the entries ‘Array’ in content field.

I would appreciate any help.
