I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here. I just installed the dev version and went through all the settings. Updated the mapping for 'path' in my xls doc to be mapped to URL, and when I commence import...everything seems to be working fine except for path is not populating the URL field.

Also...Will this module update pre-existing nodes on the site? If I have a node named 'test', and i fill out the xls doc accordingly with URL as 'test', will it overwrite my existing node and update it from xls doc? I couldn't test because I couldn't get URL to map correctly.

Thanks,

Not out of the box. But:

- Feeds' URL or GUID does not exist for existing nodes. You may find a quick way to assign such values (see feeds_node_item).
- title or similar are not 'unique' targets. Wouldn't be hard to make them so.

Re #2 also see #789494: XML import of nodes updating existing - let's have any conversations around this topic over there.
