Awesome plugin that does exactly what it needs to do
For something to just work, and be simple to use, and for free to the community, is amazing. The only thing I struggled with was adding the scripts (I manage my own server) and use Plesk, which is uncommon still, and wasnt sure if just installing the modules on the server would work like I wanted it to. But I logged into sudo and installed as per instructions on the links the developer provided, and it worked. No restart of Apache necessary either, at least for me. Great job on this plugin. The only thing that COULD be improved is translating paragraphs and images into blocks in Gutenberg. Right now it imports in in as one block and mashed all the images together at the bottom in a gallery. So I had to have the editor change the block manually, then reorganize. Still saved a ton of time just bringing in the images. My suggestion might be moot though, as I am using custom content types instead of default posts, and now it doesnt utilize blocks, so make sure it still works the other way as well. Thanks for your hard work on this, you deserve 5 stars for sure.

Cool plugin, works as advertised and quite well.
Looking forward to the continual development of this. This could be an amazing resource for researchers.
