You can have multiple images as External Links or Attachments though. You are also only allowed one “Image” per event. Note that if you do want to convert your images to be embedded in the timeline file, this will increase your timeline file size, so if you have lots of images this might be unfeasible. If you want the image embedded in the timeline (either as an Image or an Attachment) you can then choose File->Attachments->Convert Local Links to Inline Images or Convert Local Links to Attachments, and this will convert your links to images/attachments. The timeline stores the path of the image on your computer, however it does not store the image itself.

This will import your photos as external links.

Choose “Start” for the column that has your date data, “Links” for the column that has your photo locations and “Title” for the column that has the event title.

The next screen will ask you to match your columns to what they should be imported as.

If the first row of the csv file has header titles, check this box.

Choose whether it has a comma or tab delimiter (whether the data is separated by commas or tabs).

Choose the csv file to import your data from.

Once you have the csv file, follow these steps to import your data: So if Trophy is providing you with a csv export of their data, they will have to provide a “Title” column (or you would have to add one in after). However to import csv data into Aeon Timeline, the csv file must contain a column that is imported as the Title of an event. If this is true, then you would be able to import this data into Aeon Timeline, where you would have an event at the date listed, and the image either as a Image, Link or an Attachment.

I must admit to being very excited that this might be a thing we can do! Let me know if you need Aeon screenshots to see an example of something I manually entered.įrom what I can tell from Tropy’s suggestion, they are able to provide you with a csv export of your data that would include the date and the path of the photo on your computer. I would assume I could modify the template for metadata to include a “Title” for an archive, right? “The Battle of Britain” for which you can then enter a singular date or a date range). If you are not familiar with Aeon, each entry on the timeline has a title (e.g. The cherry on top of the icing will come with advanced search which we hope to work on after summer. I think we’d be able to set up a working solution relatively quickly (albeit with some back and forth and installing a custom plugin) if Aeon Timeline can import photos if you pass it the filenames in a CSV file (of which I’m not completely sure). Are you using ‘Tropy Generic’ or a different template for your items?.Do you want to export any metadata besides the date?.Do you have multiple photos per item? And if so, would you like to import each photo separately (with each photo using the item’s date)?.This should be easy to do if you give me a little more information: Since it looks like Aeon Timeline files we could set up a custom CSV export plugin that exports the photo paths and dates only. OK in this case it depends on how importing data into Aeon Timeline works (I’m afraid that’s out of my jurisdiction), but basically, if you export an item (or multiple items) using the JSON-LD export all the metadata is there so if Aeon Timeline allows you to import photo + date in some fashion, it should be possible to extract all the necessary information from the JSON.
