Quick Bulk Post & Page Creator

Description

A handy WordPress plugin for batch creation of posts and pages in your preferred hierarchy.
Indispensable tool for WordPress developers.

Getting Started

After installing and activating the plugin, go to Tools -> Quick Post Creator. Please, refer to the Usage section below for usage information and examples.

Usage

When you go to Tools -> Quick Post Creator, you will find a form that allows you to bulk insert posts/pages. The form contains the following fields:

Hierarchy Indent Character

Specifies the character (or set of characters) that are used to specify the hierarchy indentation. You can use those characters in your Entries text, prepending one or more entries with one or more of these characters. You can read more about how this field is used in the Entries” field description below.

Post Type

Specifies the post type of the entries that you want to bulk create.

Post Status

Specifies the post status of the entries that you want to bulk create.

Entries

Allows you to insert as many titles of entries as you wish. Each entry should be on a separate line. You can additionally prepend each entry with one or more hierarchy indent characters. For example, if your character is an asterisk – *, you can use one asterisk at the beginning of an entry to specify that it is a child of the last item without any asterisks. You can use 2 asterisks at the beginning of an entry to specify that it is a child of the last item with 1 asterisk, and so on. There is no limit of how deep you can go with your hierarchy. Also, there is no limit of the number of entries that you might want to bulk create.

Saved me a ton of time. Needed something for a one-time use and found this one when another, similar plugin wanted $49/year for the ability to include a parent page. While it has not been updated in some time as of this writing, I can confirm this plugin works on WordPress 5.3.x.
