ContentXpress Article Importer

This is a WordPress plugin for importing articles from ContentXPress. It is a fork of the original ContentXpress Article Importer developed by the Publishers Printing Company.

New features:

• Uses <dc:creator prism:role="author"> data as the post author
• Imports <RTF:Terms> as post tags
• Imports <prism:coverDisplayDate> as a custom taxnomy
• Assigns proper date to the post by parsing the date from the <dc:identifier> field
• Imports <prism:section> as a category
• Adds article images to the top of the content as a [gallery]

Changelog

2.3.0

• Documenting the need to keep the PHP session open inside lib/fns/preview.php. Otherwise, if you close it, the plugin is not able to import from the ContentXpress API. At some point in the future, I'd advise we fix the plugin to not require leaving the session open, but at this point, I'm simply documenting the requirement so as not to break the plugin in the future by using session_write_close() in lib/fns/preview.php.
