 * I have had requests to fork this project. I’ve been modifying it for a client
   project.
 * I have added author functionality. Basically, if there’s an author in the feed
   post, that will display when the_author() is called instead of the feed name.
 * I’ve also added the ability to move feeds from one campaign to another.
 * I wrote a Perl script to convert a spreadsheet of feeds to opml for WPM(U|S):
   
   subdomain, category, subcategory, feed Then upon import, you can pick the campaign
   and wordpress category it belongs to, or it will create a new one.
 * I’ve set the default to use feed date and to not cache images.
 * I’ve been working on getting the images correctly. At the moment, it inserts 
   the image into the beginning of the post, but we might change that to something
   more robust and customizable.
 * Please let me know of any other feature requests or problems you may be having.

 * yes i dont understand this either:
 * “Must add unique constraint on hash column of the wpo_campaign_posts table. Easy
   with PHPMyAdmin or by hand.”
 * I have phpmyadmin but need instructions on how to ‘add unique constraint on hash
   column of the wpo_campaign_posts table’.
 * This plugin would be great if it didnt have the duplication error and if it worked
   with simple tags.

 * Elizabeth – Many thanks for your modifications. Its great that you are picking
   up the mantle on this popular plugin.
 * I downloaded the WPOMatic from your website. Overall I was very happy as it now
   doesnt post duplicated. However I seem to have lost all the links in the articles.
   I’m not using any word rewrites but really want to keep the links in the original
   articles working.
 * Is there something odd going on with it?

 * please someone describe how you:
 * “add unique constraint on hash column of the wpo_campaign_posts table”
 * in phpmyadmin. So I can get elisabeths fix to work.
 * Im willing to happily pay for instructions!

 * I tried the fix – but didn’t seem to work for me – anyone else tried it?
 * To add unique to the hash columnof the wpo_campaign_posts table in phpmyadmin:
 * 1) select the wp_campaigns_post table from the list of tables in the left sidebar
 * 2) select ‘structure’ from the tabs along the top
 * 3) you will see the 4 table rows – ‘hash’ is the fourth row – click on the little‘
   U’ (for Unique key) icon in the hash row.
 * 4) If it throws an error because you already have duplicate ‘hash’ entries in
   your wp_campaigns_post table then you will need to empty the table first. (there
   is no harm in emptying this table.

 * I’d love to see a fix for this too. This is NO easy problem.

 * yes i also tried the fix. No change. Still many duplicate posts. This has been
   a major bug of this program for years now.
