 * Hello,
    i am using the free version of rss post importer. I have a problem regarding
   images. Currently i have the following configuration: Download and save the image
   locally and set a featured image. My problem is, that the one image which is 
   setup as featured image is saved two times on the server. One time for the article
   and the other one for the featured image. Is it not possbible that the article
   image is setup as the featured image, too? And the other thing is that the article
   images are not really attached to the post. It would be nice, if the images would
   be attached to the article.

 * Hi,

   > too?
 *  Unfortunately not at the moment, because some templates do not properly support
   the featured image option from scratch and we need to store the featured image
   differently… but we will look into some work around to only store it once and
   use it in both cases (article image and featured image).
 * You can have the articles images attached to the posts, you will however need
   them to be hosted locally (download and save to your own server).
 * Cheers
 * PS: Thanks for using the plugin, please get the word out and feel free to reach
   out via chat or email.

 * Please try to provide an option to use content image as featured image. Currently
   it takes too much space.. 🙁

 * my server is full of imported images but this administrator does not care to 
   fix it in any way, there is only support for paying users

 * hi there.
 * I understand your concern.
 * We really apologize but we are still working on this issue as this only happens
   to selective user and we are looking into why.
 * Now we can suggest a solution for this,Use an external CDN to host images…this
   is easily done by taking advantage on
    amazon S3. Amazon S3 is just an option
   to be used as cdn, there are other options as well. There are wordpress plugins
   that help with this.
 * I unfortunately can not recommend any specific one,I will suggest you hire someone
   to help them achieve this just on case you are not familiar with the process.
 * If you need more help , please email me at [camille@feedsapi.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/content-featured-image/camille@feedsapi.com?output_format=md)

 * Hi wakeuptamilan,
 * We are still doing some test and hopefully the fix will be implemented on the
   next version of the plugin.
