I need to export blog entries from Drupal to a XML RSS feed or a CSV file. I have spent countless hours trying to export it, however, no results whatsoever. I have created a new view based on the defaults of the Blog node and have set the following parameters:

  • Style: RSS Feed
  • Row style: node
  • Items to display: 25
  • Path: latestblogs/feed
  • Attach to: Blog page

The feed page does work, however, none of the entries are appearing. What do you think is the issue?

  • Can you post pictures of your view configuration? Is this Drupal 7 or 8?

  • Interesting.... I don't necessarily see anything wrong in the view config here. Is the RSS page just totally blank, as in no underlying markup? Are there any server errors or logs?

If you want to export a View as XML or CSV, you will want Views Data Export.

Edit: now that I know this is for Drupal 6, you will have to dig to find the releases for 6.x on the project page. Here they are.

  • Thanks for that! I have tried most of the latest beta releases for version 6, however, they're not listing in the Modules page.

  • It doesn't appear in the list of modules whatsoever? That's odd. I do recall using it in 6.x for report exporting.

  • Nope. I have "views exporter" though. I am guessing that's different, right?

  • It should definitely say Views Data Export, as that is what is listed in the module info file

  • Strange. I'll try an earlier release.
