Can I associate an aggregator source with a flexinode or a certain vocabulary term? I was trying to do it with the taxonomy_associations mod but couldn't figure it out. if anyone has any ideas, I'd appreciate whether it's that way or another way.

Thanks!

Is the aggregator not a content type? It's not an option in admin>categories>edit vocabulary under the node types list.

The standard aggregator module doesn't allow for categorization, but it sounds like the node aggregator module might be worth looking into. I haven't tried it yet, it apparently isn't completed, but sounds like it's working.

I use aggregator2. It allows for full integration and use of the taxonomy module, in fact, it requires that you create vocabulary for it to work...I think. It even allows you to syndicate xml feeds with .php extentions.

Note: I've actually found a bunch of versions of this hanging around with at least two different versions of installation instructions. Apparently the author was too impatient to wait for a CVS account. Dig around if you get stuck.

with aggregator2, feeds now become content types, and thats how you create them.

I don't have cvs, just 4.6.3 so I'll have to wait for 4.7 to use it. It will work with 4.7, right?

I have no problems (I don't think) using this with 4.6.3. YMMV
