First, I always, export here, so you have the right structure for your CSV file.
00:15
And then I add it to that file and then import it here.
00:19
I don't use the tool myself.
00:23
It updates over time.
00:24
Sometimes, I don't know the specifics if it, updates your existing content or it overrides everything.
00:31
That's why, just to be sure.
00:32
Or just export everything, add your new content and then import everything just in case it overrides existing content.
00:40
So from here we drag in, the file as a banner or a header.
00:47
So we click yes, and you see here, this is the name.
00:52
Here you can check if everything is connected correct correctly to the right field.
00:57
This seems all fine.
01:00
And then we import the case studies.
01:06
It can add, images to thumbnails, but only if they host it externally, which is quite a hassle and I would not recommend.
01:15
I would just upload, thumbnails and things, separately.
01:21
some are, put on draft.
01:24
I see.
01:25
And some are queued for next publish.
01:27
Let's see.
01:29
Check case studies here.
01:31
See, they don't have the thumbnails yet, but they do have here all the new titles.
01:40
And from here you can click on Publish.
