is there anyway to import links to the links admin other than the oplm deal? Don't have oplm files here, not sure how to make em, but I got about 100 links to enter and I don't want to do em all 1 at a time!
import links from excel or txt file? (8 posts)

Posted 4 years ago #YES! that's 2 major things I needed for my WP install, now if I can just get my recent posts list to use the permalinks structure( this thread ), and figure out how to get my links to show how I want ( this thread ) my life will be complete!

Sorry, newbie here. It went right over my head.

It says "Run in directory with wp-blog-header.php and 'links.txt'." I put it in the root directory with the text file of links and navigated to it in a browser. It returns a 404 error page.
What does "run it" mean?

Put it in the directory that contains the blog header and link to it means... http://yoursite/WPlocation/links2wp.php that sounds about what you wrote - unless WP is not in your root directory.

Posted 4 years ago #Yes, my test WP is in the "root" of my local host. The links2wp.php and header.php are in the same WP directory along with the text file.
It doesn't work. I put in the URL http://my-computer.local/wordpress/links2wp.php and absolutely nothing happens in WP. All I get is an error page.
For such an otherwise elegant application, importing links into Wordpress is extraordinarily difficult.

Yeah, it won't make my dinner, either. Without a link I think we are done here.
