I'm not seeing any of the categories/terms from feeds showing up in nodes. I've created a vocab and associated it to feeds and feed items, and it's showing up as a field if I edit a feed item, but it's always empty. Is this a current feature (if not, I'm happy to help as it's central to our needs)? If so, any suggestions on how to debug my problem ?

Thanks

ps-- excellent module btw. such a relief after wrestling with other aggregators!

This feature is indeed working. Try a feed like Drupal.org.

Note, if some feeds don't work, then it's a bug with SimplePie: http://simplepie.org/ .. that parser isn't 100% yet :-)

Thanks for the quick follow up.

I've tried the Drupal feed and still not getting terms. I just want to make sure I'm configuring things correctly before I kick a bug up to the parser people.

I have a free tag vocabulary associated with feeds and feed items. I checked the get categories from feed items box and selected the free tag vocab. Am I missing anything here?

Again thanks for the support -- I'm just so close to having this working!

I am having the same problem (sort of). Actually, none of the feed items are inheriting the term(s) of the parent (the feed). Which is problem because then I can't sort them in views by term.

This is pretty much the only bug I have come across thought. Otherwise it is a great module.

So the problem (and reason the maintainer has been unable to debug it ;-)) is that the vocid was hardcoded into the module, in simplefeed_item.module:

$item->taxonomy['tags'][1] = $tags;

That 1 needs to be the vocid associated with the feed/feed items. This is a little beyond me, but if I get it working I'll post the code. As a short-term hack, replace the 1 with the vocid you're using.

Hi,
I activate this again. Hopefully ok.
What if more than one vocabulary needs to be attached to a feed-item.
I have the vocabularies categories and regional. How to handle this?

greetings,
Martijn
