Easy way to import images including info of the photo that goes to the description or meta descr

Post by stof »

Hi,

I was wondering if there is a way to import photo's in bulk including the data that is attached to the photo's...

For example an image has got a title a subject and labels.

What I look for is a tool that imports the photo (that is standard in Phoca) and automatically puts the labels of the photo in the field of the description...
I hope I am clear in what I mean ..

Would that be possible? Or can that be made easily?

Hi, you can import images with help of multiple add function: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... categories

In case you have some data assigned with the images, I think, the best way is to import them through SQL - e.g. per phpMyAdmin :idea:

Hi,

I dont think it is exif data.. That is more the camera type etc?
I mean the info that is added to a photo. The description that is added.

Hi, it depends from where this description comes and where it is stored. If as exif or iptc, it can be somehow read (with help of customiziation) and moved to database. :idea:
