Comment #1
alex_b commentedOn your feed item nodes, is there a taxonomy vocabulary enabled? This should be the one that's available as mapping target.
Comment #2
pyxio commentedYes. Mapping works fine with normal CCK fields. But not with CCK taxonomy autotag fields. It would be awesome, this way for example you could have a blog feed and author names automatically added to a vocabulary. You should really consider it for next version. K
Comment #3
alex_b commented#2: oops. sorry. I thought CCK taxonomy was only 5.x. Is this the module you're using? http://drupal.org/project/cck_taxonomy ?
Comment #4
pyxio commentedNope. This is the module http://drupal.org/project/content_taxonomy. I guess feedmapper does not integrate with it?
Comment #5
alex_b commentedIt doesn't. No integration planned from my side. I'd also rather have this integration living in the content_taxonomy module (which is perfectly possible).
Comment #6
pyxio commentedthanks alex. i'll put it in a feature request at content taxonomy forum and see what happens. Thanks. Kevin

Comment #9
rjbrown99 commentedOK, so I needed this functionality as well. There was a patch in the other issue queue as indicated in my previous post, however it did not work for me. A number of things were missing that included an inability to display the mappings, not saving to the core taxonomy properly, etc.
I have taken that patch, updated it into a state where it works for me, and now I am using it within the feedapi_mapper/mappers directory. I am now submitting this for review. I integrated some of the functions and code from the core feedapi_mapper_taxonomy to solve the issues I had.
The reason I think this should be included in this module and queue is because most people are going to start moving to Feeds. I doubt we could get a patch into the content_taxonomy module when this Feed Element Mapper module will eventually be deprecated or replaced by Feeds. I would appreciate it if someone else could review this, test or provide patches, and then consider it for an addition to the module.
Thank you.
