I've been using this awhile, and it doesn't duplicate links in the same category. I think those links are just skipped. I've imported the same groups of links several times, with no change to the links count, and "skipped/missing" links added (well, the link count changed, but by a few links, not doubled).
As andy said, in not so many words, is that this is just an optimized, user-friendly shell around the nph-import.cgi script (which while utilitarian functional, is a bear to seed).
I've changed the screens to be more OBVIOUS that selecting the "clean" option will damage the existing database (see updated attached screen shot).
Actually, this has been updated once more, so that the NO is in bold, larger caps, and black-boxed.
Adding the DMOZ import date is a fairly trivial addition, if the contact information field is set to "DMOZ" then the script could execute an "update Links set DMOZ_Date to NOW() where Contact = 'DMOZ' and Mod_Date = Today"
You might need to also check the start/end time of the script an add a "Mod_Date = yesterday" command.
But, not extremely hard, if this is what you need.
Actually, the Contact field could be set to "DMOZ Import Date: 4/20/04" for example, and you could use a simple global test to check for the "DMOZ" in the Contact name, and display it as "Import Date" rather than "Contact_Name". That wouldn't even require a big mod, just a new template field.
Once you start using this plugin, you'll wonder how you got along without it :)
