Create the post content using alternative attributes

  • Hi,
    I use the last version of FW. Fanstastic tool!
    I have some trouble on creating a good article from feeds that contain no content attribute but different attribute like:

    <entry>
    <title>A title</title>
    <link href=”https://www.example.com/post-1.html”/&gt;
    <author>
    <name>morrolinux</name>
    <uri>https://www.example.com</uri&gt;
    </author>
    <published>2016-04-30T08:30:00+00:00</published>
    <updated>2016-04-30T13:46:38+00:00</updated>
    <media:group>
    <media:title>A title same as the first title</media:title>
    <media:thumbnail url=”default.jpg” width=”200″ height=”150″/>
    <media:description>Really nice description</media:description>

    </media:group>
    </entry>

    How can I use media:description value as content and thimbnail ad featured image?
    Is it possbile to add the link https://www.example.com/post-1.html on the content too?

    Regards,
    V.

    Hi there,

    Right now the best way to use media:description for the post content would be to write a custom PHP filter using the syndicated_item_content filter hook. So the good news is, you can do it; the bad news is that the technique for doing it depends on you being relatively comfortable with writing small amounts of custom PHP code.

    The hook is documented here: https://feedwordpress.radgeek.com/wiki/syndicated_item_content/

    You should be able to access the contents of the media:description tag by using the $post->query() method, probably something like the following: $content = "<p>".implode("</p><p>", $post->query('/media:group/media:description')."</p>"; You would then return $content as the return value of your filter function.

    Let me know either in this thread or via e-mail if you need any help on how to put together the filter function.
