Entering content is usually a simple task, but when there are batch loads of content to be inputted, then it becomes very tedious. In this recipe we will use the Drupal Feeds module to speed up this task by creating a batch content importer, which will process content in the form of a CSV file into content nodes on our site.
For this chapter you need to install and enable the following modules:
Feeds (enable the Feeds and Feeds Admin UI features): http://drupal.org/project/feeds
Job scheduler: http://drupal.org/project/job_scheduler
Chaos tools (if you haven't already installed it): http://drupal.org/project/ctools
You will also need spreadsheet software such as Microsoft Excel, that is capable of saving files as CSVs.
