About YD FeedWordPress Content Filter
From the official readme · v0.2.0Description
This plugin is an add-on to the FeedWordPress RSS content syndication plugin.
You need to have FeedWordPress installed and configured for content syndication.
Fetch images locally as attachments
If there are images in the syndicated content, they will be fetched as local attachments.
Automatically resolve redirected target URLs
Feed entries that point to 301 or 302 redirected URLs will be resolved and replaced with the final target URI.
This way you always get a link to the original source of the syndicated content instead of a link to some in-between redirection script.
Normalize content layout
The content of syndicated posts will be normalized: HTML tags will be removed, duplication of the title will be removed,
images will be processed to be moved at beginning of content block.
White space and line breaks at beginning and end of content will be removed.
Includes specific targeted filters for content from Google News feeds, Yahoo News feeds and Wikio aggregated feeds.

Drop me a line on my YD FeedWordPress Content Filter support site to report bugs, ask for a specific feature or improvement, or just tell me how you’re using the plugin.
It’s still in an active development stage, with new features coming out on a regular basis.
