Description
First of, amazing module! i was incredibly skeptical, but man i was blown away nice job. Everything is importing correctly except for my tags. in wordpress i was using Tag Warrior to handle my tags.
After looking through the wordpress xml file this is how my tags are shown:
My Blog Category
Berlin Web 2.0 Expo
Germany
Innovation
marketing
social media
social web
User Generated Content
web 2.0
The category gets created and imported correctly. The module does create the Wordpress tags vocabulary, the term list is just blank.
Whats going on? is it my Wordpress install?
Also it would be create if you could choose which vocabulary you want the tags imported to.
keep up the good work!

It seems your Wordpress plugin saved your tags in a custom field, instead of using the native Wordpress tag format.
Such custom fields are unsupported at this time.
