    Post a screenshot of your settings?

    feed pull not working… Need to setting instructions.

    as cant post screenshot of my settings….

    source feed url: http://www.simplyhired.com/c/add-jobs/example-feed.xml
    XPath to Posts: jobs/job

    other settings…

    post type=post
    post status=publish
    update existing posts=No
    automatically add new posts to categories:Uncategorized

    Field Mapping:
    Source Field (XPath): title,job-code,summary respectively
    New Post Location: post_title, guid, post_content respectively
    Mapping Type: post field(for all)

    in my settings I have
    pull feeds on this interval: 60
    pull feeds: yes
    I’ve pressed the “reset deleted posts” button

    in formulating the xpath, the root element can be ignored. so, for your feed,

    XPath to Posts: job

    Was just about to roll my sleeves up for some debugging, but instead just read the docs for the PHP SimpleXMLElement::xpath function
