by Nikodemsky·4 years ago
It messes up sensitive data like publication dates or categories; doesn’t actually do anything with external media except creating blank database posts… The only upside is that it supports ACF.

Editing since i have tried different approach with it, for some reason the images downloads just fine on another hosting(same config) and dates needs to have proper format.
It still pretty much can’t synchronize categories but i can live with that.

Works great, very useful

It lets you map fields and the import went well.
It would be even more helpful if it allowed us to also map attributes, in case images are stored in the RSS feed as an attribute.
Thanks for your work!
Huge help!
