This database will make a XML file with all those records but how to import those, for exemple every night, into EZP ? Thanx for your help Martin Harispuru EZP is Great
K259	Wednesday 30 August 2006 3:40:51 pm A lot of people in this forum need this kind of script also. Either import via xml or ordinary text, and an explanation where to import the new content(ezcontentobject, ezcontentobject_attribute, ezcontent_tree etc.) so the data is stored correctly according to the ez publish data structuere. Since this is an open source cms..there should absolutely be such a scripts available, and with very good documentation on how users can import data to ez publish. Why has this been discussed so many times, without no answers or results?

I would not say these discussions did not have any results. Try to explain us what you exactly mean. It's very hard to make a one-fits-all import solution, and I think this counts for every CMS. independent eZ Publish developer and service provider \| http://blog.coomanskristof.be \| http://ezpedia.org

In fact i need to "synchronize" an EZP content classes objects with an external database.

This database will make a XML file with all those records but how to import those, for exemple every night, into EZP ?

Thanx for your help
