    I have tested with the free version, and it is very impressive. For as complex an operation as this plugin is intended (lots of variables and variation), it does it well.

    This is the scenario that I have, and I would like to know if the paid version will do it (I might have been able to dig the answer out of the free version, but it wasn’t clearly evident):

    – Client will FTP a CSV file to my server (it will contain a member list)
    – I would like to import it on a SCHEDULE (say once per hour)
    – I would like to UPDATE existing posts for changes (not create new ones) (the csv file WOULD contain a unique key field)

    Can this be done with the plugin?

    Second question – as an option, instead of creating INDIVIDUAL posts for each line item in the CSV file, can it create ONE post with ALL of the CSV data?
    The reason I ask this, is that it might be easier to retrieve one post, versus a few hundred to display the entire member list…

    Very nice plugin. Keep the faith and keep it going. There are no others out there that can do what this one does…
