My client decided it was a hassle to upload content and a photo individually: (multi record setup)
So I created a way for them to batch upload their photos and content to display on a single record setup:
Is it possible to convert the data from the "multi" over to the "single" setup? All to avoid re-entering over 100 records!
The fields to utilize would be "Filename" and "info1".
Thanks

Hi,
There isn't an easy way that I'm aware to convert 100 records (from a mult-record) into a single record.
One thing you could do is edit the publish template that displays the 100 records to be stripped down to just display the content you want and then copy and paste that into the single record WYSIWYG editor.
For images though, you would need to upload them for the single record but you can select multiple images at once to upload which will help. And also enter image field details again too.
Anyone else have any other ideas/suggestions?
