Bulk Upload User Photos | Forum

I am moving from SkaDate to Oxwall. I have a site with approximately 1500 users. I have the data imported but not the pictures. Is there a way to bulk upload the images? If not, what is the naming convention and dbase table structure. Maybe I can upload the images then do a csv import into the proper photo tables. I looked at the structure but say hashed file names. I'm not sure how to do the csv import or if it's even possible. Unfortunately SQL is not my specialty but I can follow instructions if anyone can help.


Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Unfortunately, you can't do CSV import of the photo or upload them in bulk from other software. You will need to write a script of convertation. 


You can take a look at this file: ow_plugin/photo/controllers/upload.php to see which methods are used for photo uploading and storing. 


The photos are stored in the database in the following tables: 


ow_photo;

ow_photo_album;

ow_photo_featured;

ow_photo_temporary
