Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Hi,
I've followed all the steps and successfully created a feed, but when I go to map my fields, I don't have the option to map to "From Date" and "To Date" as the howto suggested.
I've attached an image of the options that are available. Has something changed since the tutorial was written? If so, what do I map, and to where?

ekes commentedI am taking it you are using both the -dev versions of parser_ical and date modules. In which case the mapping has changed a bit:-
Using the last patched version of the feedapi_mapper date mapper (end of thread of http://drupal.org/node/215979) you should then just map the
options->VEVENT->DATEsection to thefield_date (date)rather than each bit of it.Comment #2
FoolsRun commentedThanks, I must be using the -dev versions. I've been frantically setting up this site for the last few days and must have had some now-forgotten reason for choosing those versions.
Thanks, it worked like a charm.

rbrownellReopening... Same issue with Feeds.
Comment #6
ekes commentednfd can you be a bit more descriptive? The above is very specific to a mapper and system that only exists in FeedAPI.
Comment #7
rbrownellYes, my apologies. When one tries to achieve the exact same task on Feeds there is no apparent way to map the 'to date' variable. (see attached) am I missing something or is this supposed to be automatic? (See attachment)... As you can see the iCal Date field is already mapped to the 'from date' variable.

ekes commentedIf the date field accepts a to date as well, and there is one it will map it.
Comment #9
rbrownellBut isn't doing that. Is there something that I am doing wrong? There are two date fields added by the Date module (via CCK) to include both a from and two date. It is mapping the 'from date' but not the 'to date.' Is there a way of setting it up so that both from and to dates are in the same one field?
The Date field has two fields Date: Start and Date: End.

rbrownellWhat I was doing wrong was that the Date field in CCK had the to date option set to "Never".
