Feeds module and feed that includes external files as nodes I have a feed that includes item content in external xml files. For example, I have a manifest.xml file that has "sections" and each section links to another xml file.. such as:

&lt;rss version="2.0"&gt;
&lt;script/&gt;
&lt;channel&gt;
&lt;title&gt;Example&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;link&gt;manifest.xml&lt;/link&gt;
&lt;pubDate&gt;Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:00:00 GMT&lt;/pubDate&gt;
&lt;lastBuildDate&gt;Wed, 05 Dec 2012 17:04:05 GMT&lt;/lastBuildDate&gt;
&lt;item&gt;
&lt;title&gt;Page One&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;link&gt;Page_One_Section.xml&lt;/link&gt;
&lt;pubDate&gt;Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:00:00 GMT&lt;/pubDate&gt;
&lt;/item&gt;
...
&lt;/channel&gt;
&lt;/rss&gt;


Then in that (section) external file contains lists of nodes whos content is stored in yet another external xml file...such as

&lt;rss version="2.0"&gt;
&lt;script/&gt;
&lt;channel&gt;
&lt;title&gt;Page One&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;link&gt;Page_One_Section.xml&lt;/link&gt;
&lt;pubDate&gt;Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:00:00 GMT&lt;/pubDate&gt;
&lt;lastBuildDate&gt;Wed, 05 Dec 2012 17:04:05 GMT&lt;/lastBuildDate&gt;
&lt;item&gt;
&lt;title&gt;Example Story&lt;/title&gt;
&lt;link&gt;story.xml&lt;/link&gt;
&lt;pubDate&gt;Fri, 27 Jul 2012 00:00:00 GMT&lt;/pubDate&gt;
&lt;/item&gt;
...
&lt;/channel&gt;
&lt;/rss&gt;


Now my question is, in this multi-file structure, will the feeds module parse this out-of-the-box, or will I need to get some other add on or create a custom parser??

What other solutions are out there for parsing something like this?
Feeds module can be setup to do this with XPath Parser and Feed Tamper. Give feeds tamper a try - https://drupal.org/project/feeds_tamper
