XML Grab - wordpress import not working
Development and Programming
15 years ago
Hello,
I’m trying to import a wordpress blog using xml grab. Two problems 1) I’m using simpletags and would like to import the tags into a field called tags but am not sure how to do that.
2)when I hit the template with this code only one entry gets imported and there is no title and no text - just a date and author. I’ve double checked (copied and pasted) the custom field and it is correct.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for your help.
My xml grab template
{exp:xmlgrab url="http://acmconsulting.ca/wordpress.2010-06-07.xml"
itempath="/channel/item"
weblog="10"
author="4"
title="title"
date="pubDate"
category_group="4"
category="19"
category_field="category"
use="content"
fields="blog-entry"}and the wordpress xml file is here in truncated form
