In my mind I think of what I am creating as a directory, but that is different than the technical term directory listing.</div><div><br></div><div>You’re also right that this may best be a job for an intern, and it is this manual labor I am hoping I can automate.</div><div><br></div><div>Mitch</div><div><br><blockquote type="cite"><div>On Aug 13, 2023, at 7:07 PM, Paul Stallman <aliassolutions@gmail.com> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div><div dir="auto">Mitch I think you just need to make them all blog posts and categorize them. I don’t think you need a directory listing. Your content is what blogs are for. As for automation to import them it would require turning the emails into data the. You could import it all.

Here's <a href="https://us14.campaign-archive.com/?e=__test_email__&u=a931d03d317abab2d05c45d22&id=45f157c6cf" target="_blank">this week's issue</a>. You'll see each issue is made up of a few commentary posts containing a title, some category words, an image, a caption, a few paragraphs, and a link to the outside source I am commenting on. </div><div><br></div><div>Now I want to re-sort the individual stories contained in these (363!) posts into a catalog, or a directory, on WordPress, using a theme like this <a href="https://preview.themeforest.net/item/listbook-directory-listing-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/26739175?_ga=2.104695616.1188362647.1691845704-2033423390.1592069242" target="_blank">Listbook Directory</a>. </div><div><br></div><div>I want export all of these issues, separate each individual story - along with the images - into individual blog posts, categorize them, and then import them into a new WordPress directory site that is searchable by category.</div><div><br></div><div>I'm hoping that there is an automated way to do this.
