Using the Bulk Uploader

The bulk upload/export tool is a handy area of the CMS that lets you modify metadata and URL rewrites on mass rather than doing it individually for each page on your website.

To access the bulk upload in the Vennture CMS, you will want to navigate to Site Settings on the left-hand menu bar and then select the Bulk Upload / Export menu option from the submenu that appears.

Once you are on the bulk uploader screen, you will see a couple of features. The main two we are focused on are Upload URL Rewrites and Upload Page Meta Data.

Each of these areas has a download button, which will allow you to download a pre-written file containing all of your data. You can then open this file, modify anything inside, i.e. the meta description for a page or the redirect address for a URL rewrite, Save the file and re-upload it via the file selector.

Example of Meta Data File:

This feature allows you to modify as many of the data entries as you want all in one go, saving the time it would usually take to modify everything manually.

Please Note: Uploading files into the bulk uploader does not automatically publish them. This is still required by the user. To learn how to publish URL rewrites, please see this guide: Using URL Rewrites. To learn how to publish the metadata, please see this guide: Publishing Your Sites Files.
