How to translate text value to published status? [#1230392]

Hi, I'm importing nodes from an XML webservice using Feeds (7.x-2.0-alpha4), Feeds XPath Parser (7.x-1.0-beta2), and Feeds Tamper (7.x-1.0-beta2). Mostly everything's going great! But I'm trying to figure out the best way to map the value of an element (in my case, either < Status >Active< /Status > or < Status >Inactive< /Status > to the value of the node's 'published' (status) field. I couldn't come up with an xpath query expression that would work, so I downloaded feeds tamper. I've setup Find/Replace plugins that try to change the values < Status >Active< /Status > (or just Active) to 1, and the other for 0, but this isn't doing it. Is this possible? Thanks for any hints!

It looks like you were just working in this area, twistor. I went and got the new convert_boolean.inc plugin (http://drupal.org/node/1080894#comment-4785564, but then to get it the solution to work, had to apply the patch to modify the signature on feeds_tamper_feeds_after_parse (as in http://drupal.org/node/1062744#comment-4259728, which wasn't yet in feeds tamper 7.x-1.0-beta2). After all that, I'm in business...!

Glad to see it worked for you. Your issue reminded me that that plugin was lying around somewhere. #1062744: Warning: Parameter 2 to feeds_tamper_feeds_after_parse() was committed a while ago, I'm preparing for a new release.
