I can't seem to find a solution to what I'm trying to accomplish. What I need is a way to upload images in a bulk fashion, so that they are all associated with 1 node so I am able to access and display them easily through the content templates module. Right now as it stands, I have to upload each picture 1 at a time to keep them all associated with the 1 node that displays them. Is there any easier way to accomplish what I have been doing? Or a module that can accomplish what I'm trying to do? I hope that is a clear explanation. Thanks for any replies.

I actually tried that, but you go to enable it for CCK so you can add it to the create content fields, it tells you the CCK is not useable yet in the modules list. So I was pretty confused, cause I thought Image FUpload would work too. If you know how to get it to associate bulk picture uploads with a specific node please fill me in cause I couldn't figure it out after running into that.

"Also support CCK + ImageField (for D6) to upload multiple images, this is mostly integrated, but no UI exists."

So I'm a little confused, thanks for the response though!

The way i read the project page, the "also support cck..." is under "TODO" so I would guess it's either not working or buggy. I would stick with the fully supported http://drupal.org/project/image module.

See, I've been trying all the other modules I could find that were uploading/image related, and tried to figure out any way possible to associate files to a node with a way to bulk upload and keep it content template accessible. It's just that my website we are uploading 50+ images per node, on a regular basis. An Example today was, 1 person needed to created 18 separate pages with a total of 600 pictures. That will just take forever, I just gotta be missing something, somewhere...

So if you know how bulk upload with the help of that module, in any way while still keep it working with content templates, I'm totally open for advice, cause I've spent alot of time looking around and testing. I'm at the point where we may just end up hiring someone to write a module thats exactly what we want. I always turn the forums after I feel I've exhausted all possibilities myself, so I don't waste anyones time.

Pulled up my module list and this is what it says for the module and its description.

Image FUpload (CCK)
6.x-2.2
Allows uploading several images all at once to ImageField module

Depends on: Image FUpload (disabled), Content (enabled), FileField (enabled), ImageField (enabled), Not useable yet (missing), ImageAPI (enabled) "

I could accomplish what I wanted, if there was a way to reference a gallery? Anyone know if that is possible?
