Joomfish Translations*
This means that each row from your excel sheet will create one new article/item on your site. Website creators who want to populate a site quickly by importing existing articles, will find this particularly useful as it eliminates a time consuming, manual process. Furthermore you can update existing articles by downloading the existing ones and reuploading them by ID. Or do the same and then upload your joomfish translations.
Have a look at our demo site for the documentation and features comparison between the pro and the free version.
File types supported: xlsx, xls, csv, ooc

* = Feature only available in Joomla 1.5
I usually don't comment on extensions, but I thought I should for two reasons...
For one, works like a charm,is feature rich, and easy to use. I needed to import over a thousand articles from ModX to K2, which looked like it was going to be a nightmare! This extension made it very manageable. My experience level is Advanced but even a novice could use this.
Secondly, I thought it was awful pricey, BUT after using it, it was well worth the money. Great Job Dev's.

This is the first time that I have ever written a review on any subject let alone a joomla extension, so please bear with me!! and read on as this could save you a lot of time and effort which equates, in my mind, to the saving of a lot of money.
I required a very simple method to upload many thousand pages of data into a hub site that I am designing for several multi national companies. Neither, myself nor any of my staff are program orientated, we are designers, which means we have to outsource, at great cost, programmers to help when necessary.
With Content Uploader this element has now been resolved for me, even my secretarial staff can help out. As designers we are always looking for ways to simplify processes. I was so impressed with Content Uploader and the exceptional customer care provided by Chris Taylor of freakedout that I upgraded to Content Uploader Pro to show my appreciation for the extension. If you work with entering repetitively structured articles or any input, then check this one out. You will find it exceptional.

The Content Uploader is like cash in your pocket. Time is money, and making it easier to build Joomla sites is like a printing press.
Even my novice users understand spreadsheets. They LOVE Content Uploader Pro, and giving them a quick way to create content makes them very happy, which is good for business.
If you are moving a site, use any of the many data extraction programs to grab the contents of the existing site, and load it into Joomla almost instantly.
Whether you are building for yourself or clients, you'll want to send the author gifts- Highly recommended.

this component really made uploading content very efficient. you can upload hundreds of articles at once with full control on every aspect of the article. with the new version it even allows easy multilingual support with joomfish and also the ability to update articles.
as soon as i was stuck with something i emailed their support team and they went out of their way to help me out and they guided me through what needed to be done. they're very friendly and courteous.
upgrade to pro its worth it.

I recently became a "Pro" suscriber as I have many thousands of Items to upload to K2.
The time this component has saved me is quite honestly staggering! and far outweighs the cost of this fantastic component, that I have to say I was a little hesitant to pay.
BUT after a few component newbie errors, which I asked for support for AND were responded outstandingly quickly, I am sailing along and laughing at all the time I am saving and the profit I am making!
Would I recommend the "Pro" version of this product, ..... without any question.
Many components do clever things, but this does your work!

Looking down the barrel of a massive amount of data-entry for a client's site, we were delighted to find Content Uploader Pro.
Fortunately the client had already given us the content in a spreadsheet, so it was a no-brainer to give CUP a try. Once we'd correctly setup the sections and categories the import was a piece of cake - literally saved us days of work.
When we ran into a minor problem (our ignorance, not the component's fault) we turned to the developers and got fast and responsive help.
Even better, it made handover of the site a breeze. Producing spreadsheets is part of the client's workflow already - all they have to do to maintain their site is keep uploading.

Yup the title says it all. This is a great component for those big sites. If you are looking for the solution to help you inserting ALOT of content and saves you time. You found it!!!
This has helped us save money. Think of it this way. Time is money. This component saves us time. Which then saves us money. So now the projects can go out the door faster. We love finding ways to speed up the process. Can you please make this work in our sleep now ;)

We load a lot of articles on a daily basis, and Content Uploader Pro for Excel has literally saved me hours of work per day. I'm also impressed with the developer of this component. We ran into a few hiccups with the component, and within a few hours, the developer had assessed and fixed our problems. If you produce a lot of content, this component is a must have.
