Hi, I need to publish a feed to specific category (in a specific section) of the site, how can I do this?

Also, whenever I set up a feed, it publishes the nodes to the front page. How so you stop this?

Thanks.

You could set the default for the "feed-item" content type to not be promoted to the front page in it's publish settings.

bam!

I feel there is a problem with simplefeed if the target feed items do not have any category.
If the target feed items do not contain any tags or categories, the resulting feed items are not getting the parent feed's tag.

Example -
- Add a feed. Enter "myTag" for "Feed Categories". (myTag is just an example)

- Refresh feed

- The items that has some tags in it will also get the tag "myTag". But the items that do not have any tag, does not get "myTag".

I'm using drupal 6.6 and Simplefeed 6.x-1.x-dev (2008-Oct-15)

SimpleFeed allows you to set the inherited taxonomy category.

The unfortunate thing about SimpleFeed (v5) is that the same category is for RSS source tag pull-through and child feed-item inheritance.

Would be nice if these were two separate settings.

Try this: http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_super_select
Or you can use http://drupal.org/project/feedapi instead, if you need configure different categories.
