 * I want to purchase the pro version. I have a specific need. I only want to delete
   duplicate posts from the same author – is this possible with your plugin?

 * Hello [@englk2002](https://wordpress.org/support/users/englk2002/)
 * Sorry, it is not possible in the plugin to identify duplicate posts by user. 
   To clarify – you are looking for a way to only find duplicates if they are written
   by a specific user?

 * My posts are imported from RSS feeds. Often the same post from an author is imported
   twice. This occurs with all authors, not just a specific author.

 * Also, sometimes two authors have posts with exactly the same title, but different
   content. I do want to keep these posts.

 * Hello [@englk2002](https://wordpress.org/support/users/englk2002/)
 * The plugin can identify duplicate posts in general, there are no plans right 
   now to introduce a way to filter/group by a specific author.
