I'm importing a date field in the format:
dd/mm/yyyy
I want to set this as the created date for the node I'm creating/updating.
I've tried the Feeds tamper module but the date function seem to convert between a string and a Unix timestamp, which doesn't seem to work anyway.
What's the best way to do this?
You can try to use the hook_feeds_presave in a custom module :
function mymodule_feeds_presave(FeedsSource $source, $entity, $item, $entity_id) { $your_import_date = explode('/', $item['your_import_date']); $your_import_date_formated = $your_import_date[2] . '-' . $your_import_date[1] . '-' . $your_import_date[0] . ' 00:00:00'; $item['your_import_date'] = strtotime($your_import_date_formated); $entity->created = $item['your_import_date']; }
