-===== BULK UPDATE =====+===== Tools =====
  
-Bulk update and bulk upload are two different things. Bulk update allows you to change the attributes of some of your photos at once that fulfill a given search criteria.+Several unrelated tools are lumped together:
  
-Once you filled the search criteria, you need to enter an action, which means that you have to fill in those fields that you want to update. Fields that are left blank will not be modified by the bulk update. To perform a bulk update, press the **Submit** button at the bottom of the page. + * [[Bulk Update]] 
- + Shop Item Generator 
-Certainly, there will be some actions that you want to perform frequently (like setting the author, caption writer, copyright note ... fields) therefore actions can be saved, modified or if no longer needed, they can be removed. + * XML Template Generator 
- + * XML Converter 
-==== Create a new Action ==== + * Content Indexer
- +
-To create an action, select the //None// value in the **Recall Acton** combo box. Chose a name for your action and fill it into the **Current Action** field. Fill in all attributes that you want to be saved with the new action and once you finished press the **Save Action** button. This will create in the database a new action, that will become your current action as well. +
- +
-==== Modify an exisiting Action ==== +
- +
-To modify an existing action, recall it through the **Recall Acton** combo box. This will load the action that will become the current action as well. Modify the fields of your preference, then press the **Save Action** button. Note that you can also rename the action by changing it's name in the **Current Action** field. This will save your modifications in the database. +
- +
-==== Remove an Action ==== +
- +
-To remove an existing action, recall it through the **Recall Acton** combo box. This will load the action that will become the current action as well. Press the **Delete** button to remove the action from the database. +
- +
-**// Note: links need to be redirected to a local demo site //** +
- +
-The bulk update feature allows you to regenerate the thumbnails and previews of your photos. This useful if you decide to change some photo import parameters, like sharpening factor, color space or watermark (these parameters can be changed via [[http://www.k-i-s.net/sw/po/demo/my.settings.php?selector=6|your settings]]). Note that the regeneration of your thumbnails and previews requires processor time. Make sure that your PHP is properly configured, so that it will allow scripts to run for a long enough time. +
- +
-===== SHOP ITEM GENERATOR ===== +
- +
-The Shop Item Generator lets you define shop items of photos that fulfill a given search criteria. +
- +
-Before you can use the generator you need to create at least one shop item generator rule, which in fact is a generic shop item. You can define your Shop Categories and Shop Items in Your Profile. +
- +
-After you created some rules you can apply one or more of these rules on photos by selecting the search criteria and pressing the Submit button.+
