Uploading Parent Picture in Bulk
Posted October 12, 2018
To upload multiple parent pictures at once, navigate to Admin > Maintenance > Upload Parent Pictures. You will need the Admin Full role to access this page.
In order to upload the photos in bulk, each photo will need to be named with the id of the parent it will be associated with along with either “-0” for the first parent, or “-1” for the second parent. Example: You have photos of Mr. and Mrs. Smith to upload. Their household id is 67890. Mrs. Smith is the parent 1 record, and Mr. Smith is the parent 2 record. Mrs. Smith's photo would need to be renamed to “67890-0.gif”. Mr. Smith's photo would need to be renamed to “67890-1.gif”.
Note: When renaming the files to include the id, do not change the file's extension.
