How to import custom content type in XML? I have installed the newest Drupal 7.12 and need to import custom content type data exported from custom CMS but ... don't know what is the correct XML structure.

1) I have added &lt;MY_CUSTOM_CONTENT_TYPE&gt; into Structure
- added about 20 fields

2) prepare Import feed


Attach to content type: Use standalone form
Fetcher: file upload
Parser: Sitemap parser - Parse Sitemap XML format feeds.
Processor: Node processor
Node processor settings: Text format: plain text; Content type: &lt;MY_CUSTOM_CONTENT_TYPE&gt;


3) I have exported XML file with content (probably with the wrong XML structure)

&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;
&lt;articles&gt;
&lt;article type="MY_CUSTOM_CONTENT_TYPE"&gt;
     &lt;title&gt;1234&lt;/title&gt;
     &lt;custom_1&gt;1234&lt;/custom_1&gt;
     &lt;custom_2&gt;abcd&lt;/custom_2&gt;
     ...
     &lt;custom_20&gt;...20...&lt;/custom_20&gt;
&lt;/article&gt;
&lt;/articles&gt;


3) after loading XML file getting "There are no new nodes."

I can prepare XML structure when exporting content, but want to know how to do it.
In my case an error "There are no new nodes" was caused by a wrong xml context in the xpath parser setting.

In your case should be: //article and not only: article.

This is because //article in xpath is equivalent to say "all the article tags".
If you put only article in the xpath, context feeds does not import anything.
