Hi gang, thanks for working on this script.

I've been trying to modify it so that I can import data as movie db module nodes. I've edited /docs/node_import_hook_docs.php and added the specifics for this module, as well as copied the .inc files from the moviedb module directory into this module's /supported directory.

However, "movie" doesn't show up in the drop down list for the data type -- only see 'story' and 'page.'

Can someone explain how to properly do this? Obviously I'm not getting it right.

Thanks,
Brad

You need to create a moviedb.inc file in the supported/ directory. Can you attach the file you created in a reply? Makes it easier to see what is missing.

Version: 5.x-1.1 » 5.x-1.2

I've downloaded the latest version, and things are progressing. Now I can select "movie" as a type to import. However, no fields specific to this type show up during the mapping progress.

I went back and manually added new fields to this content type, and was then able to map them. However, when it comes to editing or displaying these imported nodes, these newly-created fields show up in addition to the original ones belonging to the node.

So I'm still at a loss as to how to make the correct fields available from the movie database module to the node import module. If anyone can help I'd really appreciate it. I have about 900 nodes worth of movie info I'd like to add to my site.

Thanks.

Might as well close this one. Now that I'm using CCK, I can build my own movie type and import from there. :)
