    Import RSS Bug

    When I try and import an RSS feed I get the same error as this post.  So I tried commenting out the comments tab in dashboard.config and importing the feed again.  This time I get the following error:

    Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

    StackTrace:

    String rootAlias, String alias) in D:\_PROJECTS\uBlogsy -

    I am using uBlogsy v2.0.0.1 and am trying to import this feed.

    I downloaded the source to see if I could determine what the problem was. This is the line that is causing the error

    var root = Document.GetRootDocuments().Where(x => x.ContentType.Alias == "uBlogsyLanding").FirstOrDefault();

    I think it may be because my blog landing page is no longer a root page, I moved it under my home node.

    Ah yes you're right.

    This rss import  works only when the landing node is a root.

    I have the blog at the root level.

    I'm getting this error when importing and rss feed

    Did you solve this issue?

    I've done numerous tests with ublogsy 2.1 and it seems fine.

    tbh I haven't really looked for a solution.  I just wanted the import function to import the blog posts from our old site to the new. I discovered it wouldn't quite import everything we needed imported, or rather the feed didn't include everything we needed so I hacked together an aspx page to do it.

    When setting up the blog on another site I gave this a test on to see if it worked.  Blog is at level 3 and I used this feed and got this error

    Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

    RSS import only works when the blog is at the root.

    You can try using the CMSImport package.

    Hi,

    Yes CMSImport PRO can help you with this using RSS. It doesn't require uBlogsy being at the root. I've just release version 2.2 which is optimized for uBlogsy and  let's you import posts and comments from BlogML or Wordpress, Check it out at http://our.umbraco.org/projects/developer-tools/cmsimport

    Best,

    Richard
