I am new to GeekLog and I am creating a site about antiques.

I would like to be able to upload to table gl_stories, several hundred stories (or in my case info about a specific antique) with a CSV file which I can create, via phpAdmin.

I would also need to upload images for the stories.

What are the minimum fields I need to include other than the story detail fields.

What values would I need to include in the housekeeping fields and are there other tables that need to be updated.

Thanks

johnny

I'm no sql expert, but you also need the topics tables. Why not put in your topics, make a few test stories for each topic, download the database and have a look at it?

Hmm, let's see ...

At the very least: sid, uid, tid, date, title, introtext, owner_id

Well, technically uid/owner_id aren't necessary but then all your stories would be owned by "Anonymous".


Converters from other systems are always a problem. People use them once and then don't need them again, so they don't get updated - or even written in the first place. I would hope that changes now that we have out neat "internal API", at least for stories and static pages ...
