Import and export

This module provides a block to display a list of titles of recent articles from a feed created by the Aggregation module. A block may be created for each feed you have defined. Please note: this module will work only with feeds created by the Aggregation module.

Aggregate public feeds from popular Social Networking/Affiliate Networks sites directly into custom created nodes and views.

Features

Not to be confused with the Presets module...

Feeds Topics adds to Feeds the ability to watch topics (i.e., keywords) from multiple sources. To do so, it provides a FeedsFeedNodeProcessor-compatible parser that "parses" known RSS sources to automatically create Feed nodes.

Basic usage

• Enable Feeds and this module.
• Create a new content type Feed.
• Create a new importer with the following settings:
  • Attached to: Feed
  • Fetcher = HTTP Fetcher
  • Parser = Common syndication parser
  • Processor = Node processor with any suitable configuration
• Create a new content type Topic.
• Create a new importer with the following settings:
  • Attached to: Topic
  • Fetcher = Null fetcher
  • Parser = Topic parser
  • Processor = Feed Node processor with content type = Feed and mapping url (manually entered) to Feed source
• Create a new Topic node and type a keyword in the Topic keywords field.
• When you import feed items for this node, new feeds of type Feed will be created with the appropriate keywords in the source URL.

How it works

This module provided integration with backup and migrate module to import the Drupal Site Archive format. It is now obsolete.

UUID Features 7.x-1.0-alpha3 fixes some HTML code that made the module completely unusable. Please update ASAP. If you're experiencing WSOD simply remove the module files completely then upload the latest version. The latest version now works with UUID 7.x-1.0-alpha3. Please report any bug you encounter in the issue queue.

The UUID Features Integration module provides a mechanism for exporting content (nodes, taxonomy, fields) into a features module. What's that you say? You thought features was only for configuration? This module is meant to be used in the cases where certain pieces of content straddle the line between pure content and configuration.

Examples:

• There are relatively static pages (like an About Us page) that have links from your primary navigation. If these were to go missing, your client would certainly say the site is broken.
• You maintain page nodes for items like Terms of Service or Privacy Policy. These nodes appear on several sites and should always be the same.
