My CSV file contains fields for images that will be attached to a post. The images are not the featured image. Some images are shared between different posts.
For the permissions for the image field, I have two options (see attachment):
• Always download new files
• Search media library before downloading new files
If I select ” Search media library before downloading new files”, then the image will only be attached to the first post that uses the image. If later posts (in the same import) use that same image, the image won’t be attached to those later posts.
If I select “Always download new files”, then the image will be attached to all posts that use the image. However, the image will be duplicated in the media library for each post.
Is there any way to attach an image to all posts that use the image without duplicating it in the media library?
