Import Custom CSV/Re-Index?
« on: July 13, 2010, 11:14:51 PM »
I have already successfully tested importing a properly formatted csv file (containing Image Name, Description, Keywords, etc.) into the "images" table and have uploaded images to the appropriate folders. That's easy, and worked great. 

Before I go to the next step and work up my entire image collection, my question is...  will the Rebuild Search Index plugin update the "wordlist" and "wordmatch" tables with the newly imported info? Does this plugin read the Keywords field from the "images" table, then update the "wordlist" and "wordmatch" tables? Or, will I also have to create and import those files as well?

I hope that question makes sense. Thanks.

Yes, that is exactly what that plugin does.
It reads info about images from images table and updates wordlist/wordmatch with that info.
Your first three "must do" before you ask a question:
Please do not PM me asking for help unless you've been specifically asked to do so. Such PMs will be deleted without answer. (forum rule #6)

Excellent! I thought so, but wanted to make absolutely sure before I moved on to thousands more pics.

Thanks V@no!
