You obviously know how to write code. If you really want to write a custom import, I would consider writing a drush script that actually uses the drupal API to create nodes and populate them.

| Sep 5, 2015 at 19:06 | comment | added | Brian Huether | Well, I did manage to import the data, and I felt I took care of the taxonomy and other matters. But the content is not appearing in drupal. The only thing I didn't do what populate the corresponding field revision tables. But I really feel like I did this carefully, and am not sure what I am missing... | |
| Sep 5, 2015 at 18:48 | comment | added | ericx | This is a ~large~ topic probably well beyond the scope of a single question. Do not seriously consider grinding the SQL directly. It's probably do'able; but you have to touch many tables beyond the mere content in order to keep drupal happy with node ids and whatnot. Start by searching for "drupal import." | |
