 * Hi,
 * How could we add the images directly onto the database. I have over 12000 records
   to update, doing it on each post would be a little insane.
 * Thank you.

 * Hi!
 * NelioEFI uses a custom field named `_nelioefi_url` for storing the URL of the
   external featured image. If you want to add the images directly onto the database,
   you’ll have to insert the following tuple in `wp_postmeta`:
 *     ```
       COLUMNS: (post_id, meta_name, meta_key)
       ROW: (xx, '_nelioefi_url', 'http://example.com/path/to/image.jpg')
       ```
   
 * where `xx` is the ID of the post whose featured image is `http://example.com/
   path/to/image.jpg`.
 * I’m obviously assuming that you know how to work with a database directly… 😀
 * Good luck!
