 * Hello,
 * With your CSV importer plugin, is it possible to assign a “featured image” to
   each post, perhaps by adding the filename to the CSV file and them naming all
   the images to match and FTPing all the properly named images?
 * I am trying to add multiple images and assign each image to it’s own post, for
   a large amount of images (about 400)
 * Thank you

 * @ JoomJohnny5 – I think you’re going in the right direction. I too want to do
   this, I am also thinking about FTping the images to right location in uploads
   and then in post_content field I’ll add <img src=”path” /> This image should 
   work as the featured image if its the only image in that post… lets see if it
   works!

 * Erachnid – have you had any success with that? I am trying to link three images
   per post to about 2000 posts – CSV Importer has successfully pulled all posts
   in perfectly but I just dont know how to get the posts to read the images link.

 * one option:
    upload the featured image seperately. then create a custom field
   column in csv as ‘_thumbnail_id’ the value of this cell should be the id of uploaded
   image. one can get the id of image by editing it. observe the url on edit options.
   you can find the id.

   for how I have done it.
