The Batch Process allows a change in settings for a group of selected articles. You can change one value or all four values at one time.

How to Batch Process a group of articles:

  1. Select one or more articles on the list by checking the desired checkboxes.
  2. Click the Batch Toolbar button.
  3. Set one or more of the following values:
    • To change the Language, select the desired language from the Set Language list box.
    • To change the Access Levels, select the desired new access level from the Set Access Level list box.
    • To change the Category, select a category. To leave the category unchanged, use the default value of 'Select'.
      1. To copy the articles to a different category, select the desired category from the category list box and check the Copy option. In this case, the original articles are unchanged and the copies are assigned to the new category and, if selected, the new language, access level, and tag.
      2. To move the articles to a different category, select the desired category from the category list box and check the Move option. In this case, the original articles will be moved to a new category and, if selected, be assigned the new language, access level, and tag.
    • To add Tags, select the desired Tags from the dropdown or choose to keep the tags currently added to the original articles.
  4. When all of the settings are entered, click on Process to perform the changes. A message "Batch process completed successfully." will show.
