Hello,
Thank you again for creating such a wonderful plugin. There is one item that I was hoping you could help me with.
I have created rules that scrape news websites for keywords from their RSS feeds. Some of the RSS feeds are updated automatically by the source sites. For others, I have asked the source site to convert its search query into an RSS feed.
The sites that I am scraping based on the search query -> RSS are returning duplicates. By narrowing down my required words, I can get the results pretty close to what I want. For the results that are undesirable, I manually move them into a category called Do Not Post and hide that category from the front-end. I am finding that the rule will make a duplicate post with the same article title. The slug for the post will append -1 or -2. I have seen this number increment each time the rule is run.
An example rule that will always create duplicates is:
Duplicates are created with “Check Duplicate Posts By Title Instead of Source URL:” enabled and disabled.
Can you help me determine why duplicates are being created? Thank you.

Hello,
First of all, thank you for your purchase.
I checked importing for this feed on my test site, and for me, it is not getting duplicates.
Can you check, please, if you have in the plugin’s ‘Main Settings’ menu, the ‘Do Not Check For Duplicate Posts’ checkbox unchecked?
If this was unchecked, can you send me, please, temporary admin login credentials to your WordPress install, so I can check this issue out? Send it, please, to my email address: [email protected].
Regards, Szabi – CodeRevolution.
