    Thanks unfrenzied, EventsCalendar3 was the culprit. Bummer, hopefully this can be fixed easily.

    So, from what I gather, I should be able to edit the import rss function and add the add_meta() function (http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Function_Reference/wpdb_Class).

    I’m not a WP expert, does someone know the proper way to call this function? Basically, I would have 3 or so meta tags coming from the rss feed (location, time, author) and I’d like to strip these and add them to the same custom fields in the imported post.

    Thanks in advance.

    I found a bit of a workaround (and an extra feature). Using EventCalendar3.0, you can post future events into a seperate category.

    Thanks,

    Hmmmm… You would think that would do it, but anything I do to the above if statements doesn’t seem to change the posting (you can manually go to the post by entering the address, but it doesn’t show up in the listing of posts).

    Hi,
    I had the same problem, just wanted to share how i was able to fix this.

    You need to create a .htaccess file in your root WordPress directory. Text edit and bbedit won’t let you create files that begin with a period. What I did was search on my system for .htaccess files (you need to search for invisible files). Then make a copy of an htaccess file to your root wp directory. Open up terminal
    cd /library/web server/documents/path-to-your-wp-directory/
    touch .htaccess
    chmod 666 .htacces

    Open up the now writeable htaccess file with bbedit, and delete anything thats already in it.

    Add/change these lines to your httpd.conf file. First you’ll have to change the permissions on this too to write to it. (I also changed the AllowOverride for the “/” directory to All, not sure if this is needed)
    <Directory “/”>
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    </Directory>
    <Directory “/Library/WebServer/Documents/path-to-your-wp-directory/”>
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    </Directory>

    Save it (first you have to change the permissions so you have access).

    Restart apache from terminal with
    sudo apachectl graceful

    Go into WordPress and set up your permalinks.

    Hope this helps.
