I'm using an RSS feed from a drupal site to transfer some nodes from a drupal site to another using feed api and feedapi_mapper. I built the RSS with contemplate using xml elements, the problem is that if I make a change in the contemplate it takes a long time for feed api to know something has changed.

How long does it takes for feedapi to notice any changes in the feed and how can I force it to know something has changed. I tried running cron and flushing the cache but nothing seems to work, sometimes Feed API takes about 30 minutes just to notice the change.

Thanks in advance

Luis

Which version of FeedAPI do you use? This part of FeedAPI changed a lot between versions.
Also it seems that this ticket belongs to FeedAPI.

I'm using 1.6.. The only way I could solve this problem was deleting the feed node over an over again so the changes on the XML get reflected. I guess it's not the best way to do it but I just couldn't figure out a better way to do it.

I'm gonna change this to 'by design' but if you have any idea please let me know.
