Any way around to create entries in bulk?

2008-11-03T16:47:01Z

I have lots of entries to make, like more than 2,000+!
So, i am looking forward to have some workaround to post such entries more quickly?

Any ideas, comments?
Please advice.
Thanks.

What sort of data source do you have in mind? That's what determines the answer to this question. Do you already have a blog?

No, i don't have any. I just have some pictures that i want to post as entries.
Pictures are many, they are more than 2,500!

So, i am worried on how to post them.

Thanks

I'll write you a perl script to do the import tonight.

Give this a shot and let me know how it works. This is just a "1.0" release so please follow the instructions exactly as it's only been tested from that standpoint (worked just fine on my local installation of 4.21)

Hey, I am new with the PERL, i dont know how to run the command, that you said:

Then run the command like this ./import-images "My Blog Name in Quotes" MyUserName /home/mike/public_html/italy (note do not end the path with a / as of version 1.0).

Please advice,
Thanks.

If you can't use SSH, you might want to try this plugin: http://plugins.movalog.com/asset-handler/
