Re: [SOLVED] site data in XML
First create a XML form type in Advanced options/Custom form template types:
[xml]
mediatype="text/xml"
title="XML"
Then create a XML form (say products
) like
<?xml version = "1.0"?>
<products>
<txp:article_custom>
<product>
<title><txp:title /></title>
<description><txp:meta_description format="" /></description>
...
</product>
</txp:article_custom>
</products>
You should be able to access it via ?f=products
now.

Re: [SOLVED] site data in XML
<?xml version = “1.0”?>
<products>
<txp:article_custom>
<product> <title><txp:title /></title> <description><txp:meta_description format=”“ /></description> …
by the product description I meant – text inside the body. is it correct then:
<title><txp:title /></title>
<description><txp:body /></description>
but images?

oleg, this is not at all what i would like. i would like to export this page as XML.
your solution produces this
some page titles and one multiplied page description

What do you want — I had no idea of how meta_description
tag works :-) Try with <txp:body />
or
<txp:custom_field name="description" />
And probably replace article_custom
with article
to filter by section.

@etc: Ok. With the help of a plugin (I thought you do it with some native TXP magic inside) :D

Re: [SOLVED] site data in XML
Is the https://kenovoeesti.ee/tooted/aeda-ja-garaazi/ page an article or a category? The reason I am asking is because it finishes with /
which implies that it is not an article. It is good to know if aeda-ja-garaazi
is a category and if tooted
is a section.
Also…
- Are the images loaded via
article_image
? - In case it is a category, Do you expect the data of the tables to be included in the xml?
