Bulk Media Upload

Last updated on
30 April 2025

With the bulk media upload module you can upload a bunch of files to your drupal website. For each file a new node will be created.

Installation & Usage

  1. Install Media, plupload and token. (Dont forget their dependencies!)
  2. Download plupload from plupload.com and copy the files into sites/all/libraries/plupload. Remark: At the moment (August 2015, updated April 6 2017 (yes it is still valid)) plupload 1.5.8 library is required which works nicely with plupload module 7.x-1.7
  3. Create a nodetype with at least one media asset field
  4. Go to admin/config/media/bulk_media_upload and choose your nodetype and the mediafield
  5. Visit admin/content/file/bulk_upload, fill out the form and start uploading

Known Bugs

Image/File-Field as default value

When you have a image or file field assigned to your nodetype, the node generation only works when you click "Start upload" at the plupload-widget before you click "generate nodes"!
