New Page: Generating a List of Image Titles

Introduction

Before uploading images to the website, it’s essential to organize and create a list of image titles. This list will be crucial for managing the product database in WooCommerce. This guide will walk you through the process of generating a list of image titles from the class folders provided by the photographer.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Receive Class Folders:

   • Ensure you have received the class folders from the photographer. Each folder should be named after the class and contain all the images for that particular class.

2. Open the Class Folder:

   • Navigate to the class folder on your PC where the images are stored.

3. Generate the List of Image Titles (Windows):

   • Open the folder containing the images.
   • Click on the address bar, type cmd, and press Enter to open the Command Prompt in that folder.
   • In the Command Prompt, type dir /b > imagelist.txt and press Enter. This command creates a text file named imagelist.txt in the folder, containing a list of all the image titles.

4. Generate the List of Image Titles (macOS):

   • Open Terminal.
   • Use the cd command to navigate to the folder containing the images.
   • Type ls > imagelist.txt and press Enter. This command creates a text file named imagelist.txt in the folder, containing a list of all the image titles.

5. Access and Use the List:

   • Open the imagelist.txt file with a text editor like Notepad (Windows) or TextEdit (macOS) to view, copy, or edit the list of image titles.

Best Practices for Image Title Management

• Consistent Naming Convention:

  • Ensure the photographer uses a consistent naming convention for the images. This will make it easier to manage and reference the images later.

• Regular Backups:

  • Regularly back up your image files and the generated lists to prevent data loss.

• Organized Storage:

  • Maintain an organized folder structure on your PC, mirroring the organization in the class folders.
