    Hey guys,

    I’m trying to migrate from RSS Aggregator, because it doesn’t support WPML and has other issues. Is there a way to only import media into the media library with a minimum size (either filesize or better image dimensions)? My feeds all have 1x1px GIFs in them for tracking purposes and I don’t want to add them to the media library.

    Thanks

    Harry

    The plugin does not check the size of images added to the Media Library. Depending on your “Add to Media Library” setting, it will either add all images found in the post or none at all.

    And would you consider adding that feature (could also be in the paid version) or is there a hook I could use?

    The premium version of RSS Retriever has a feature called “Remove Outer HTML Elements”. This feature allows you to strip out specific HTML blocks based on their classes, IDs, or other attributes before importing.

    If those tracking pixels have a consistent class or are wrapped in a specific container, you can tell the plugin to delete the entire HTML block. Then, the image will never hit your Media Library, and your post content will stay clean of tracking garbage.

    Unfortunately, this complex filtering feature is only available in the premium version. However, it solves the “cluttered library” issue you described. You can find its description here: https://www.rssretriever.com/documentation/#remove-outer-html-elements
