I had a pal hack me a handy little script for this, one single file and easily modifiable, about three years ago. Unfortunately, this was also about 5-6 HDD crashes ago... I'll look for it on my backup CD's, if I find it I'll let you know.

in the time you have waited for an answer you could have used that awesome feature we all have. Copy and paste!!!

Does copy and paste rename too?

I know Cham Sub is a submitter, but it will also do what you need.

I've thoroughly looked and could not find this in an off the shelf script anywhere.


Make a text file with the names you want the copied pages and CS will duplicate and rename them accordingly.

I could create something for you if you want.. I might have something for that hold on..

Wouldnt you rather it be a little random , ? Like maybe make every file the same but the title of the page be the title of the name of the file ?

In the hour this thread has been running I hope you could have typed out 20 renames! If not try typing class.

No i need to have 20 different html files duplicated into 20 more of the same file but with names. It sounds confusing but the reason i need the names to be chosen cannot change.

Got it! Check your ICQ.

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
 
$file_orig = "_somefile.html";
$files = "filename_list.txt 
 
open (FILE, $files);      
@allfiles=<FILE>;     
close(FILE);   
 
foreach $name (@allfiles) {
 chop($name);
 system("/bin/cp $file_orig $name");
 }
 
exit;

do a search on google for a doorway page generator.

Was thinking the same thing as I read this thread.I use a little known technique called "save as"

Seriously, I could have had 20 copies of the same page renamed and saved in fifteen minutes at the most, including a pee break.

There was a mistake on the following line:

$files = "filename_list.txt

It should be:

$files = "filename_list.txt";

I made a little VB script once that duplicated a file and renamed it using 1000's of different keyword combos. It made me a LOT of dialler mins back in the free napster days

Hmmm...can't find it now though. If it turns up I'll hit you up and send a copy.

[~Ray]

hit up manuel from oxeo.com , he'll write a script for you very quickly.
his icq is 20214646

it'd probably be easier to use .htaccess ... that way when you need to edit it, you wont be having to change 20 different files, creating symbolic links would work well too

[TheJimmy]

if you haven't found anything yet, beep me on ICQ at 5702550, I think I have a little mass/renaming tool in VB that could work...I'll go look for it now...

[pstation]

if a redirect is fine, you can do this in .htaccess

Redirect /folder/faggot.html http://www.mydomain.com/folder/mainpage.html

alternatively, you can use mod_rewrite if a server redirection wont work

And what if you want to edit the text between the TITLE tags on the html page as well, and in php instead of perl?

Well yes it does but probably not the way you want it to. So you need a batch file renamer as well. I use this one:

Yea i already got what i need.

When you need to name 150 different files into 20 different names time ads up.
Thanks all.

It would take me a bit more time than I have right now to get it in PHP, so I modified it a bit in perl ..

in _template.html this will be your original file you start with, The title line needs to be: <title>%%TITLE%%</title>

In the filelist, which I called filename_list.txt, the file needs to look like this:

someword1.html||Title for someword1 file goes here
someword2.html||Title for someword2 file goes here
someword3.html||Title for someword3 file goes here

And so on ..

Here is the modified script .. going out for the rest of the day right now, didn't test it, but it should work....

#!/usr/local/bin/perl

$template = "_template.html"; 
$files = "filename_list.txt

open (TPL, $template);  
@tpllines=<TPL>;
close(TPL);

open (FILE, $files);
@allfiles=<FILE>;
close(FILE);

foreach $list (@allfiles) {
 chop($list);
 ($name,$title) = split(/||/, $list);  
 open (NEWFILE, ">${name}");             
  foreach $line (@tpllines) {
   chop($line);
   $line =~ s/%%TITLE%%/$title/;
   print NEWFILE "$line\n";
   }
 close(NEWFILE); 
 }

exit;

Only talking 20 files or so and want them named various things rather than sequentially numbered, I would just go for copy & hit Crtl+V 19 times and rename them manually.

Nice, I don't need it per se, but I thought it was good to know. Will save it for future reference.

Thanks.
