Images are a mess

    Just a quick note that the image handling on this is a mess. I did the import setup manually because images were not being assigned as ‘featured images’ (so they lost that relationship) and were being imported multiple times so we would end up with several hundred instead of a few dozen

    Seems to work otherwise

    Hi @todditron,

    The featured image issue is a recently discovered problem that we’re working on a fix for.

    That said, it shouldn’t have duplicated the images multiple times unless the import settings were set to do that. If you’d like us to check why this happened, please replicate the issue on a sandbox site at https://www.wpallimport.com/debug/, then send us the sandbox site URL along with brief instructions on how we can reproduce and see it ourselves.

    I got it all sorted by just building out the import template manually (fortunately jobs manager uses all native WP structures, so that seemed to work fine). But when I first ran the import using this plugin, it didn’t have any of the image options (other than a url), so we couldn’t tell it what to try to match existing by (I usually say match by filename), so I think that may have resulted in multiple images being created since the same images were referenced by multiple job listings on the source data. That or with all the rollbacks I just messed something up. Regardless, something to keep an eye on. Thanks
