I made the mistake of creating some nodes with Feeds and deleting them through Drupal rather than Feeds. I cannot get Feeds to "forget" about those nodes, despite clearing the feeds_source and feeds_item tables, and therefore cannot reimport the data (using XPATH).

I would like to clear all artifacts of Feeds from my site so I can start anew. I've removed the module (and related modules) and deleted the tables:

feeds_importer
feeds_item
feeds_log
feeds_push_subscriptions
feeds_source

Somehow, I still get the "no new nodes" result after fresh installations. Is there something else I need to dump before I can start fresh?

Thanks.

No, clearing the feeds_item table (or even only remove the records from that table that where created by the importer, see the column "id") should have been enough. If that table is empty, then I know three possible causes for this issue:

  • It can be a configuration error in your Feeds importer somewhere. For me, when I get a result like this, this appeared to be the cause of the issue most times.
  • It can be that the source where you were pulling data from has changed its data structure.
  • It can be that the source where you were pulling data from no longer contains data.

Check the source data and compare it to the configuration of your Feeds Importer.
