Bulk Add Terms (Makes, Models, Cities etc)

Add many taxonomy terms to Vehica at once — a plain list such as 100 vehicle features, or a Make together with all of its Models already linked as parent and child — instead of creating them one by one.

Vehica Panel > Advanced with arrows pointing to the Bulk Add Terms panel, which holds a Taxonomy dropdown, a Terms box and an Import button

Only Taxonomy fields can be filled this way

Firstly, it is important to notice that you can Bulk Add Terms only for Taxonomy fields.

Vehica Panel > Custom Fields with the Field Type dropdown open on Taxonomy, and arrows pointing to the fields that already use the taxonomy type: Condition, Body Type, Offer Type, Make and Model

This module can be used in 2 ways.

1. Import a plain list of terms

You can import a list of terms — e.g. 100 vehicle features — as plain text, with each term on a new line.

2. Create a Parent-Child relationship

You can also use it to quickly create a Parent-Child relationship — e.g. add the Make (Lamborghini) and connect many children to it (Aventador, Gallardo, Murcielago, Diablo, Huracan). Here is an example of how to do it.

  1. 1 Open the child field

    Firstly, let's make sure the Child Field (Model) has a Parent (Make). Edit the Model field in Vehica Panel > Custom Fields.

  2. 2 Set its parent field

    Set Parent field to Make and save the changes.

  3. 3 Open Bulk Add Terms

    Visit Vehica Panel > Advanced > Bulk Add Terms.

  4. 4 Enter the parents and children

    Configure it this way, with each parent and child on a new line.

  5. 5 Click Import

What you get

Done. You will find Lamborghini in your Make terms:
