Forum OpenACS Q&A: Re: Bulk upload of categories?

Seems like its pretty easy to do this by CSV

Something like:

Parent Category | Subcategory

Where you can create an infinite tree of categories based on the name by just looping over the rows in a CSV.

ie: If subcategory is blank create a new top level category. Otherwise create a subcategory of the category with the matching name for parent category.

This assumes you don't have any duplicate categories anywhere in the tree.
