Title: Please add descriptions to Feed API fields in schema » Feed URL field felxibility
Component: Code » User interface
Category: task » support
Issue tags: +CCK, +field, +feed url

Hello,
I've got CCK and Feed API installed. I'd like to create a node type where users can input their feed URL, but I need the Feed URL input field to be more flexible, so I can move it around with the other fields (made with CCK).

The "Feed URL" does not turn up under: "admin/content/node-type/[node-type-name]/fields". Is it possible to make it turn up there, or are there any fixes that will do that?

Not a FeedAPI issue. Please refer to hook_form_alter() on http://api.drupal.org to modify the form.

O, sorry, did not read the original issue first :( #2 goes for #1 - original issue is of course valid.

#1: please do not hijack issues but open new ones for new topics.

This is such an addition what I would like to see in FeedAPI 1.9.

+ 'description' => 'Timestamp of the most earlier possible next refresh time',

Suggest "Timestamp of the earliest possible next refresh time"

+ 'description' => 'Link to the source site of the feed',

Suggest "URL of the source site of the feed"

+ 'description' => 'Indicates if not of the feed items were processed at the last cron run',

Presumably you mean "not all"

Does this patch cover ALL of the fields? I am not at my dev PC, so can't provide a real patch, or check using Schema module.

Thank you for catching these problems :)
A new patch is here. Yes, ALL of the fields have description now.

Rename:

Always XML feed. Not used -> Type of feed

Type of the data, eg. process_time, memory_increase -> Type of data

Otherwise RTBC. Thank you!
