JUPIX: Setting the Post Author

Hi Merv,

Here is an example listing:

I have tested a few things and the only way I have found for this to work is to create a wordpress author username with the staff member initials and to use the jupix property record field ‘property reference’ to match the initials, also placing the ‘property reference’ field in the wp all imports ‘post author’ box. It seems to need an exact match so I cannot put a unique reference number after the initials, but I don’t think that will be a real problem as Jupix does generate a separate unique property id.

Would have made more sense if Jupix included the property record owner name in the xml feed, but there we are. At least there is a viable work around. I have not deployed this solution yet as I need to setup mobile numbers and a few other things first.

Thanks for your help.
