    The hardest bit is creating new resources from the parsed XML but that's not that hard. The basics for creating a resource are in this post here though in this case related to formit2resources but the operation will be the same in a plugin which first parses the xml and then maps the parsed fields to the resource fields and then saves.

    If you need more cronjob function, I suggest using a free service such as easycron.com.

      Hi, just bumping this to see if you ever figured this whole process out. I am also looking to do the same thing, and would like to try and see what you may have accomplished?

      Hi Gallen - have sent you a PM. I'm in discussion with a few MODX developers, but yes still need help!

      Formit2Resource is great for user generated content, however for the first phase of this idea, RSS to Resource would be a better match.

      I'll update this post when I have more to share...

        You can do it relatively easily with the OAuth2Server and Zapier Extras smiley

              If it's not totally off your radar, I'd also be interested to know what you came up with. Thanks!

                  Hi Jon,

                  Do you still have the function working for you?

                  I did, not had this running since MODX 2.4 - so not sure if it will still work
