    Importing RSS errors on comments?

    I'm having trouble importing a WordPress version 2.8.4 into uBlogsy in Umbraco 4.7.1. I provide a URL (example.com/blog/?feed=rss) and get the following error: 

    Object reference not set to an instance of an object

    Line 36: <% if (Comments.Count > 0)
    Line 37: { %>
    Line 38: <h1>

    Source File: \wwwroot\usercontrols\uBlogsy\dashboard\admin.ascx    Line: 36 

     

    Any advice? I'm not sure if the outdated version of WordPress is a problem, but I had trouble updating the version. Thanks in advance!

    Which version of ublogsy are you using?

    Also, what is the actual rss feed url you're importing?

    In the /usercontrols/ublogsy/dashboard/admin.ascx

    Try repalcing 

    if (Comments.Count > 0)

    with

    if (Comments != null && Comments.Count > 0)

    Thanks, but after making that update, there is another error further down:

    Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
          foreach ( var c in Comments)

    Hi

    Sorry about that. I just realised that fix wouldnt work.

    I'll have to make it in the code behind.

    I noticed that the rss feed you're importing doesnt have a date for each item.

    This will still be impoted. Just thought I'd flag it with you as dates are helpful :)

    Do you know why the date wouldn't be saved in the feed? They are present on the front-end on the actual post.

    The fix is in the newest version. Will be released in the next few weeks.

    In the mean time you could try using cms import.

    It looks as though v2.1 was uploaded a couple days ago. I haven't had a chance to test it out, but is that the version you're using Daniel?

    Nevermind...  i thought that upload date meant it was a new version.
