Hi guys

I need that this module to behave. I have a deadline in a small project and I am willing to pay some money to get things done...

The thread is here:

http://drupal.org/node/533040 (bug)
http://drupal.org/node/843920 (question)

You can fix the problem with this module (and a problem with the Fieldtool module) or give me an alternate solution.

I need import twice a day an xml file into drupal nodes (cck) What I need it is described here: http://drupal.org/node/843920

Transformations is perfect, it is an awesome module, but is not working :(

I am doing my best with the english :)

I answered your question (see the page)... In a nutshell here.. just run a script/program to import directly into your Drupal Db (for example MySQL). Your problem is just a question of an appropriate Db import script/program. The Transformations module might have a lot of the functionality but don't see the need in this case to bother going through Drupal.. Its between the Db and your data.. Incremental or whatever.. So... if your using MySQL.. the question is not really Drupal.. but just (and this is standard stuff) importing into MySQL XYZ.. You just need to set things to import into the tables using the Schema set by Drupal.. As long as you don't mess wtih things.. the script can keep on ticking..

An article, for example, on exporting/importing via XML for MySQL is:

Hi,
The better option for your kind of requirement is using feeds module along with xml parser. I am sure using feeds module is far more easier than transformations module.
