Hi, I have been trying to import tags into my new site in preparation for importing tagged content. However, though I have the vocabularies in the dev site, I have tried importing the tags to no avail. I have used Feeds taxonomy importer, created a taxonomy Feature, and used Taxonomy CSV importer all to no effect. I have looked at the taxonomy_term_data table and see nothing in it, other than some tags I entered for testing purposes. I entered these in both taxonomy manager and in the regular taxonomy way. Using the Feeds and CSV methods shows "xxx tags imported" but the tags do not appear. Any idea on something like this? Thank you!

Hm...anyway we can take a look at your feed configuration mapping?

I just have two fields
Term id,Term name
"409";"AMS"
Are quotes required around the column headers?
Also interesting is that after importing the tags, I noticed that the tags that are already in the db (entered normally or through tax mgr) disappear. I used tax mgr to output the tags and then removed the first and last two columns before importing.

"13";"238";"277";"";"0"
to
"238";"277"

Hi, I just found out by looking in the taxonomy_vocabulary table that my machine_names for the vocabularies are not assigned to those vid's, i.e. my former vocabulary_1 is now 19 in the vid column. So my Feature imports of the vocabularies just reassigned them to new vid's. Can this affect the importing if I still choose the correct vocab in the Taxonomy importer?

I found I have three taxonomy tables:

taxonomy_index
taxonomy_term_data
taxonomy_vocabulary

Can I copy the term data and vocabulary to the new site without problems?
