Please add Gallery to list of RSS Import options

Please can you add Gallery to the available RSS Import areas (under AdminCP > RSS Feed Imports)?

We only have Pages and Forums, plus Blogs via the front end.

Example:

Import Nasa's image of the day from their RSS Feed:

https://www.nasa.gov/rss/dyn/lg_image_of_the_day.rss

Many thanks!

This would be really handy for importing quick demo content on localdev as well.

Why didn't IPS ever complete RSS integration with the full suite in terms of the RSS/Atom Feed Imports page?

I'd also like to see full use of RSS feeds when importing into Blogs as the entry's featured image, for example. It is pointless being able to import blog entries and ignore any enclosed images. Blogs was always behind WordPress in this regard.

That said, if it was me at the helm of the good ship IPS,  I would kill off Blogs as a separate app and merge its unique features into Pages. It seems like a logical progression IMHO.

This was simply outside the scope of what that feature was designed for at the time.

Thanks Marc. Hopefully later in IC5, they’ll be able to add it.
