Hi,
I used feed importer before but somehow I am not able to replicate what I did. I created two nodes, one for the source of the feed and one node to hold the content of the feed. I remember creating a node source and inputting a url link to the feed in one of the options. Then I used feed importer and base on the source node, it pulled in feeds and created the content node.
However, now when i try to replicate the same procedure, I can't find the options to input a url feed in the source node. The option vanished. I have been uninstalling modules so I'm not sure if I disabled the module for it. Does anyone know how I can input the feed url in the source node?

Hi, You can use the module
Hi,
You can use the module named Link (http://drupal.org/project/link).
Kenavo.
Create new node / import
Under 'basic settings' you have the option to attach the importer to a content type (lets call it "RSS Processor")
If you choose that option, you get to set the URL when you create a new RSS Processor Node.
If you don't attach the importer to a content type, then you set the URL at your site's import page: http://example.com/import.
This is covered in the info under "Getting Started" when you create a new importer. It even has a link to the page for you.
The only module I can think of that might affect this process is if you uninstalled CCK or something it depends on. You need CCK to create new content types, but if you created your processor content type already, then you should just be able to add a new node from the create content page. (http://example.com/node/add).
Hope that helps.
