I have 0 experience with this comus program, maybe someone (a comus user) can enlighten us what to do here about this format.


None of the sponsors listed here output the format you request.
But if this is the format that comus users need then I will do it.

Something tells me that it is not needed though as no sponsors that I know of output this way. (hell most dont even have thumbs and descrips)

Maybe comus users are exporting available lists and then batch re editing them with the other fields that would most all be the same anyways as far as keywords and such.

We could probably add in the "categorie" value easy enough but so many label niches differently.

I think if comus users are actually using this bulk importer it must work without all those variables or they are editing their gal lists the get from the sponsor before they paste them in.

Just out of curiosity can u enter in a thumb url for sponsors that provide hosted thumbs for the galleries?

Hello Comus users......
it could be true, i am by no way a comus expert but when i tried importing and it never works from the default config of any of the sponsor import.

It's that vote catagory.

So far there is 4 options
1. use the default sponsor import (which is incomplete)
2. import with only url sections and let comus spider grab the rest of the info (which results in bad catagories, and badly cropped thumbs that need to be fixed manually)
3. export the data as a csv save, add extra colums, enter the missing data manually and then export it.
4. ask in a board like this.

this importer would be so much better if the first three colums were
url, description, thumb
everything else would be extras, and would not matter if they were blank, but putting things like catagory and vote inbetween legitimate fields cause all kinds of headaches.
