Description
I just want to assign a company rss feed to a vocabulary having for terms company names.
Is it possible ?
Thanks,
Christopher
ps: what is the difference between leech_feed_taxonomy and terms_extraction ?

Hi Christopher,
you can assign a term to a feed node like you can assign a term to any node. In addition to that, leech allows you to pass down taxonomies from feeds to feed items.
yahoo_terms (a term extraction module) tags feed items by analyzing the feed items content. leech_feed_taxonomy pulls the tags from the category RSS/Atom tags on the item of a feed.

Thank you Alex, but I would like to assign **automatically** a specific term to a feed (therefore to all nodes created by this feed). I did not find how to do it with the leech interface (1.7) or it is not working (do I have to add the PHP code like in the video?)
Otherwise, I would like to have the parser check the content of the feed against terms of a vocabulary and assign those terms to the node (from what I understand, the yahoo parser use its own terms and not your terms)
Thank
Christopher

It seems that I found where the option is :
Advanced leech settings / Pass on taxonomy from feed to feed items
If enabled, taxonomy of a feed node will be passed on to its existing and future child feed items. Only those taxonomies will get passed on, that are enabled for both, feed and feed item.
Thanks

This option will do the following:
Whenever a feed item is created, it will inherit all the parent item's terms. Watch out: this feature is a bit rough around the edges. Take especially care if you use a category on your feeds that you do not use on your feed items.
Let me know how it is going.

Alex,
Everything is working fine. The news are correctly associated with the term
Cheers

ps: is it possible to import the whole news in the node instead of a summary ?

Does the length of the text in the node differ from the length of the text on the RSS feed? Most RSS feeds only provide summaries.
