- Configuration referenceEvery screen, global setting and per-rule option.
- Something is wrongImports that produce nothing, fail, or never run.
Where to start
If you have just downloaded the plugin, read these two pages in order and you will have posts in your dashboard by the end:
- Installation — get the plugin running and confirm your server can support it.
- First import — create one rule, run it by hand, check the results, then let the scheduler take over.
If you are evaluating the plugin before installing, Requirements tells you whether your host will run it, and Free vs Paid tells you what this edition covers.
What this edition does
- Unlimited RSS-to-Post rules, each with its own feed URL, schedule, post status, post type, author, categories, tags and content template.
- Hour or minute scheduling, chosen globally in Main Settings.
- Unlimited posts per run — set a rule's Max # Posts to
0. - Full-content fetching from the source page, image importing, featured images, royalty-free image sources, text spinning, translation, and post filtering.
- Post-to-RSS rules that publish your own content as named custom feeds.
- A Crawling Helper for finding the CSS class, ID or XPath of the content you want to extract.
- Activity & Logging with per-rule status, a system-info panel, and rule backup/restore.
The free edition is fully functional for importing. There is no rule cap, no post cap, no time limit and no watermark. See Free vs Paid for exactly where the line sits.
How an import actually works
Two things have to line up before a post appears:
- WordPress cron fires. While the plugin's master switch is on, it schedules an
echoactionevent — hourly when the schedule unit is Hours, once a minute when it is Minutes. - The rule is due. When
echoactionruns, each active rule is checked; it only imports if its own schedule interval has elapsed since its last run.
So a rule set to 24 hours imports roughly once a day, checked hourly. You can always bypass both and run a rule immediately from the rules table — that is what step 5 of the first import does.
Upgrading
The full version is sold on WPBay. It adds feed search and rule creation from results, hosted JavaScript rendering with visual content selection, live RSS display blocks, and optional Gutenberg conversion for generated posts.
