I'm just now re-installing a 4.7.x website that crashed and burned when I had to put it onto a new box. Agg2 was the main module running the site; the site depends on that kind of functionality. In the time since the site initially crashed, agg2 was abandoned and leech became its replacement. Fine and dandy, but the instructions are so craptastic that I can't figure out how to get the thing to run. I've figured out enough to enter a feed, but feed items are not showing up.

What I've done:

1) Installed and/or enabled the leech module and the node_template module.

2) Made a story node into a template.

3) Went into ~/admin/settings/content-types/story and enabled leech, giving it the template.

4) Made nodes of two different feeds using the newly leech-y story type, and updated/leeched the feeds.

5) Yes, cron is running.

And then what? Who knows! Because the feed items aren't appearing anywhere and nothing I'm reading at drupal.org tells me where or how they might be enabled. I went to the IRC channel today and was confronted by a blank screen but for my own appeals for a good half-hour.

OK I'm done bitching now. I feel better. :) I don't expect folks to do it all for me, I just wish when people release stuff they made better READMEs, or find someone to write a README for them. Yes, I will write READMEs for developers, having done tech writing before, but you have to explain what the hell's going on to me first. I've been working with Drupal since '04, possibly '03, I can't remember, so I'm not new to this stuff.
