Documentation Needed on Mapping Fields

Issue Summary

I have installed this module and then tried everything to get it worked but alas couldn't succeed. In fact I didnt understand the user interface that asks for mapping fields. There is no guide or instruction for the users to use this module and the screen shot provided is of no help as it shows something like different services to select from and then create, while all I get after installing is to save the configuration for mapping. I made a new node type, namely wikiarticles and created a few text fields like artist and song. But now i am stuck and dont know how to proceed. Please help me about the right way to use this module as I need this for some articles about artists (to retrieve them from wikipedia).

which url do you access?

* /createfromweb is to use the module
* /admin/settings/createfromweb is to configure if needed (what your screenshot shows)

I ran into the same problem and I think it's a documentation issue. I had a hard time finding the information on mapping wikipedia articles to a Drupal node. If links were provided for third-party information pages (where users might find the wikipedia field names, for instance), it would go a long way in making this module more user friendly.
