Paste a listing

Already written this car up on Carsales or Facebook Marketplace? Paste that text below and the fields fill in automatically. Check them, fix anything that looks off, then copy the result into a new car in the Content Manager.

One flow does everything. Paste the listing, check the fields, drop the car's photos, then press Save once — the car and its photos go live together in about a minute. (This only ever reads the text you paste; it never touches Carsales or Facebook.) Adding photos to a car you saved earlier? Use Bulk photo upload.

1. Paste the listing text

Raw listing (and optionally a Carsales/FB link on its own line)

2. Check & fix the fields

Anything the importer wasn't sure about is left blank — fill those in. Nothing is saved until you copy it into the Content Manager.

Slug (URL — lowercase + dashes)

Brand

Model

Year

Body type

Colour

Transmission

Price (AUD — 0 = POA)

Kilometres

Narrative (the write-up)

Specs (label / value pairs)

3. Add the photos

Drop the car's photos here and they save together with the listing — one Save does everything. The first photo becomes the main (hero) image; pick a different one with the radio if you like. Photos are optional — no photos yet? Just save the text and add them later.

Drag photos here — or click to choose.

JPG / PNG / WebP. Drop the whole set; the first one becomes the hero (you can change it).

4. Save the car

One click saves this car (photos and all, if you added them above) straight to the site — no copy-and-paste. It goes live in about a minute. (You'll need to be logged in at /admin first.) Prefer to do it by hand? The ready-made file is below — Copy file to clipboard still works as a fallback; it matches content/cars/<slug>.md and the write-up sits below the --- line.
