Support for Importing nodes from D5 to D7 using Feeds
I'm under the gun to get these nodes into the new site, so I'm probably not reading everything correctly, but what is my Feed's URL (on the D5 site). I can't figure out where to find that. Thanks!

Client needs content published to a feed automatically, once every 24 hours at a particular time. The content has already been created for all future posts.
I set it up as follows:
Content:
Item A: Post date set to 4/9 6 PM Item B: Post date set to 4/10 6 PM Item C: Post date set to 4/11 6 PM Item D: Post date set to 4/12 6 PM
I've created the feed in a View.
Number of items to display is: 1 Sort is ascending on Post date. Filter is set to: Post date is greater than now - 24 hours.
This does not work. With this configuration Item A only gets onto the feed at 10:01 PM on 4/9.
It seems to work right if I set the filter to: Post date is greater than "now - 20 hours."
Clearly this must have something to do with the fact that the site is in "EDT" which is UTC - 400. The site uses Drupal 6.25 with Date 2.8. The site time zone is set to "America/New York" and "user configurable times zones" are "disabled."
Though I seem to have it working, I'm still confused. Can anyone explain?
Thanks,
Shai
Hannan, It's best to make a custom feed using Views (I'm almost certain you can do that with Views 1 for Drupal 5). The core feed created by Drupal requires "published" set to "on" (probably not a problem) and "promote to front" set to "on" => which could very much be a problem if nodes you want to migrate are not promoted to front. The feed URL for this core-created feed, I believe, is: example.com/rss.xml Creating a feed with Views you can set any parameters you want for which nodes to grab. I should also note that all this becomes even harder if you have custom fields created with CCK. If you don't, it's a lot easier.

And also be kind to trim the digest content to pertinent information. We don't need to be seeing a digest of what we see individually in your reply to the post. -- Earnie -- https://sites.google.com/site/earnieboyd
