Bulk-adding featured images

[Tim]

Hi all
If I have a whole heaps of events, is there a way to bulk-update (perhaps via a myphpadmin upload) with featured images? (Perhaps Amazon S3 URLs).

I.e. is there a way to bulk set Featured Images.

Obviously backfilling 200 events by hand is very time consuming.

Thanks!

Hi Tim,

Thanks for using our plugins.

We do not have this feature yet to import featured images. We have a ticket to start development on it, but I do not have a timeline for its release.

I looked through our snippets and could not find anything else on this for even a temporary message unfortunately.

There maybe a plugin out that that can attach a default image if there is none as events are custom post types.

I maybe to help on a customization, but only to get you started.

Let me know what you would like to do.

Thanks

Hi Brian
Some help would be awesome…thanks.

Since we use custom post types, can we use post meta to set an image? Maybe using phpmyadmin?

Hi,

I found this coding that could be used to add featured images:

and this:

The event custom post type is tribe_events

This plugin might help too:

Quick Featured Images

Quick Featured Images

There is other ways to do that, but that was all I could find right now.

Thanks
