Using POPULATE.PHP

example (if I were inserting four listings into the script)

(”,’Hello!’,'Greetings’,'http://domain.com’,'fanlisting’,'greetings’,'greetings_u’,'1′,’0′,’0′,’1′),

(”,’I'm Awake!’,'Awake’,'http://domain.com’,'clique’,'awake’,'awake_u’,'1′,’1′,’0′,’1′),

(”,’Goodbye!’,'Farewell’,'http://domain.com’,'hatelisting’,'goodbye’,'goodbye_u’,'0′,’0′,’1′,’1′);

Notes :

• The first empty ‘ ‘ is for the auto number generated for the listing.
• All listings will automatically be listed under the ‘Actors’ category (of whatever category is assigned to no. 1)
• You will need to assign the categories manually once all the listings have been entered into Fan Admin.
• For Listings that use ‘Add-on Fields’, make sure you add the fields when you update the Listings
