CCK Node Reference and other fields in KML Feed

Issue Summary

I created a kml feed of all my nodes. It worked really well. I even got the body of the nodes into the feed.

However, I have some node reference fields that would also be nice to have in there, but it doesn't appear to work. Any ideas.

This is a good feature to have for uploading to Google Maps.

Thanks,

You could do this a couple of ways already, either by overriding (see howto) the theme function (theme_kml_placemark_description) or by installing Content Template module and customising how the teaser is built.

It might be nice to add some customisation functionality into the KML module itself, but I think the two methods above would give much more flexibility to site developers.

Let me know how you get on, and we can update this issue accordingly.

Changing the title to reflect that this actually affects all CCK fields (and any other fields or metadata, for that matter).

I'll give the contemplate method a try since I'm not a programmer.

Thanks for the tip.

The 5.x branch of the KML module is currently unmaintained. If anyone wants to maintain it, contact me. This issue won't apply to the 6.2.x work.
