<h4>JSON Content Importer PRO</h4>
<p>Both the free and PRO JCI Plugins serve the same purpose: retrieving data, transforming it, and publishing the results.<br />
However, while the free Plugin can only handle basic challenges, the PRO JCI Plugin offers nearly full control over WordPress, the database, and applications.<br />
<a href="https://json-content-importer.com/compare/" rel="nofollow ugc">Compare: Free vs. JCI PRO Plugin</a></p>
<p>PRO features:<br />
* application building by creating a searchform and connect it to a JSON-API in the background: pass GET-Variables to use a dynamic JSON-Feed-URL (“talk to API / webservice”)<br />
* much better and more flexible templateengine: twig<br />
* create and use Custom Post Types<br />
* store Templates independent of pages<br />
* more Shortcode-Parameters<br />
* executing Shortcodes inside a template<br />
* more features…</p>
