    Hi all,
    I’m sort of new to wordpress and searching through plugins to find what I need is proving overwhelming.

    I’m setting up a site for a nursery that sells a variety of plants, and need some way to have each variety listed (in a table form or otherwise), each with a description and picture. Is there a plugin that would help me do this? I don’t need shopping cart functionality, just an easy, organized way of displaying them that could be updated by someone with little experience.

    If there is a plugin that could import this information from a spreadsheet, that would be even better…but not required.

  • Well if you don’t find a plugin to do that, first get a plugin such as WP-DB Manager or WP-DB Backups that automatically backs up your database.

    Then in your WordPress database create a table for your data, then use the phpMyAdmin Import CSV ability to import the data then use the wpdb class to render that data on your blog.

    I would shamelessly suggest you try out and use my plugin, CataBlog. It does what you want as far as uploading photos with descriptions and title. You can also set up multiple different catalogs using the plugin’s tags feature. Last but most importantly it lets you give each CataBlog item a buy now button which links to a paypal account for a simple but effective shopping cart. Give it a try and let me know what you think.
