Using Views, my imported feed data in the field "Fast feed: Description" is in the form of text such as: "Only local images are allowed.<>..."

How to turn this text into images?

I mean to say the imported feed is all text but contains hyperlink to the images. How to convert this link into images?

Hi alex_b,

Do you think this is a case of HTML filter and related to your reply here http://drupal.org/node/901944 ?

Because does image_grabber work with Fast Feed? Since this is Fast Feed, the imported feed is in the form of data and not node. And we can't add fieldimage to Fast Feed.

What I'm trying to do basically, the imported fast feed news item contains image hyperlink, now how to to show that picture? If it were normal Feeds and nodes, it would be very easy.

Are you using img tags? If so, you need to configure the views handler for that field in the data module.

To do this, go to Site Building -> Data Tables and click on "Edit" next to the table to edit.

Under the "Configure Views" tab you can set the handler for each field. Set the "Field handler" for your Description field to "views_handler_field_data_markup".

Edit: yes, as per alex_b's comment: http://drupal.org/node/901944#comment-3433496

Hi imclean

Thank you, please bear with me here.

Yes, I did read those instructions but when I went to Site Building -> Data Tables, this is what I get：http://www.gurita.com/Untitled.png
I could not able to find any "Edit" on the table there.

So from there I went to Data tables Content Page, it shows like this http://www.gurita.com/Untitled2.png
I then clicked on "View" and it displays the output of the feed. Only THEN there is the hover menu with 3 options 【Edit】【Export】【Clone】 and I choose Edit and it took me into Views.

In Views I clicked on Fields => Fast Feed: Description, but couldn't find any "Field Handler"? This is what I get http://www.gurita.com/Untitled3.png and the choices for the Description field http://www.gurita.com/Untitled4.png

Am I missing something here? Where's the Field Handler located?

Thanks a lot.

OK, I think I got it, in the Data Tables just click on “Override". :-p

Thanks.
