getFeed & Wordpress RSS Feed

Hi,

I'm new to the forum but i've been looking extensively and can't find an answer to my question.

I'm trying to import a Wordpress feed onto the homepage of a clients website, they wanted to keep their current Wordpress blog but build a new site in modx around that a custom system that they use.

I've pulled the feed from Wordpress via RSS and i can display it on the site using getFeed, however for some reason I am unable to pull in the Authors name.

When i open the page without any template file the parameter (or key) used for Author is [creator], it looks from the feed as though it is hidden beneath another key [dc] and i can't work out for the life of me why i can't pull in just the creator name.


Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks
Charles

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi howvard, I solved this problem by small getFeed patch: https://github.com/splittingred/getFeed/pull/18

Hi Jiri,

That looks perfect.

I actually wrote a custom script to pull the relevant fields straight from the database. I think I had to find the post and then link to the users table to access their name. Not quite quick as using getFeed but it worked for that project which had a relatively short deadline.

The getFeed patch is defiantly something I will use in the future!

Thanks!
