Introduction

Automatic Articles, Data Import & Export, Mass Content, Content Construction, K2 extensions

The Content Uploader is an innovative tool designed to streamline the process of importing data from spreadsheets directly into your Joomla website. This functionality is particularly advantageous for website creators seeking an efficient way of populating their sites with existing content. By utilizing the Content Uploader, each row within an Excel sheet can seamlessly translate into a new item on the website. Further, you can download existing content in form of an Excel spreadsheet, which comes in particularly handy as a backup or to import it again on a different site, for example when migrating from one Joomla version to another.

The following items can be imported and exported:

  • Joomla Articles
  • K2 Items
  • J2Store Products
  • K2Store Products
  • Contacts
  • Weblinks
  • Akeeba Admintools URL Redirections

This feature holds significant appeal for users who prioritize time efficiency, as it eliminates the need for a labor-intensive, manual item creation process. Instead of individually crafting items, users can leverage the spreadsheet format to input data in a structured manner, allowing for a bulk upload that translates seamlessly into multiple items on their site.

The Content Uploader supports a variety of file types, including xlsx, xls, csv, and ooc. This versatility ensures compatibility with different spreadsheet formats, catering to a broader range of user preferences and existing data structures.

Handy Tool for Bulk Article Creation



Posted on 24 September 2024
Functionality
Solid tool for content uploads. Free version handles basics well and did the job for me. Speeds up my workflow considerably.
Ease of use
Pretty straightforward interface. Took a bit to get used to, but now it's smooth sailing. Most features are where you'd expect them.
Support
Decent help when needed. Response times impress, even on weekend. Better than many other extentions I've tried...
Documentation
Instructions cover most scenarios. Could use more examples, but it gets the job done. Helped me figure out the trickier parts.
I used this to: Import product catalogs in bulk. Great for updating inventory and generating SEO-friendly pages. Saved me hours of manual data entry work.

Why didn't I find this sooner!



Posted on 28 May 2024
Functionality
Started with the free version, which was doing almost everything I needed. After a while I switched to the paid version - no regrets!
Ease of use
To be honest the paid one is definitely superior in terms of functionality and ease of use but that's only natural. For a free tool it's gr8
Support
I didn't feel a difference in support between free and paid version. All requests where handled quickly and professionally.
Documentation
I used this to: Updating product catalog on a regular basis. Importing hundreds of items every week.

good component



Posted on 14 November 2023
Functionality
It greatly speeds up work with SEO on the website.
If you have a lot of simple, repetitive articles to add, use this or a paid add-on
Ease of use
The full version of the module is easier to use, but with the free version you can also do a lot, it speeds up your SEO work
Support
Very good help - which is rare in the free version.
The developer helped me and was very nice and understanding
Documentation
I used this to: I use it to create many SEO subpages. In XML, I provide variables and generate unique pages for positioning

Excellent extension to create bulk articles from Excel



Posted on 24 October 2023
Functionality
Excellent, Set the columns in the config, save config, point it at the file and press import. Review you new articles.
Ease of use
The interface is very simple and is laid out similar to the article page so it is easy to find and set the values you want to import.
Support
Excellent, I had an issue when I first installed the extension so I contacted the support email. I had a resolution within hours.
Documentation
The documentation is fairly basic but the extension is not particularly complicated to use so it does not need to be.
I used this to: The website I am working on has a large back catalogue of newsletters as pdf files. With this extension I was able to create a new article for each pdf including text content, cover images, download links and setting the created date of the article to the original published date

Good Componenet. I had to use an earlier version.



Posted on 07 May 2020
Functionality
Once I used a different version (3.0.0) it functioned correctly for me.
Ease of use
As far as setting it up and running, it is very easy to use. It is very straightforward.
Support
I had an issue wherein support just gave up on me.
I was using version 3.4.2. I had to load version 3.0.0 to work.
Documentation
Documentation is clear and easy to understand. In most cases, one need only refer to it once or twice.
I used this to: Creating 300 pages for graduating Seniors from our local community college.

It Works fine!



Posted on 17 October 2016
Functionality
I imported over 450 articles with Excel file (.xls) in minutes,
just works fine as said.
Ease of use
Takes a little time to understand all the settings.
I think it's need a better user interface.
Documentation
Can be more specific for end users, it's more like a tech note now.
The hints popup in admin area says much more than formal Documentation.
I used this to: Import articles from non-joomla based content though hand-made excel files,
50 articles a time.

Category import broken in Joomla 3.5.x

This extension is a real time-saver when it comes to creating large amounts of articles. Setup is straight forward.
Ease of use
Setup takes a bit of time but once it's done you just select your Excel file and press upload. Couldn't be easier to created bulk articles.
Support
Didn't require support for the free version. I switched to the pro version as I needed more features and support was superb.

There is a video on the website which explains how it works. Also every config option is explained with tooltips. Excellent!
I used this to: Product catalog
