   I have 3 writers writing...i want to upload all articles at once but not live but as a draft. How would i do this? Would i have to put it in csv format and upload directly to the database? or is there other options... ill potentially upload 100 articles at once.

   You might want to set your site up with the Role Manager plugin if you have not already. This way you can set your writers (which I hope each have a different login username/ account) that their posts cannot be published unless you approve it. When they submit, they will be on review for you. You can then schedule each post to publish since it seems you do not want all of the posts to publish automatically.

   I do not think there is a way to mass schedule posts as of yet. If there is... I do not know of it.

   You will have to enter them one at a time and schedule each post. If anyone else knows a mass submission and scheduling method, that would be great.... at least in your case.

   I really would not recommend that unless you are familiar with MySQL.
