Batch edit page properties?

Permalink 2 users found helpful
I'm finding myself needing to apply the same property change to 10's or even 100's of pages while developing a site.

For example I have created a custom attribute called 'staging status' and I want to set entire directories of pages to a particular status setting.

A code/script solution would be acceptable, but ideally an interface option like the 'setup on child pages' function when editing pagetype defaults.

Anyone know of an existing method for doing this?

I want to apply page attributes to child pages, too, and I hope there's a way.

You can set the default value for attributes (applies to all pages with that attrbute), and you can set the attribute value for page-types (applies to all pages of that type), but these are still only default settings applied when the page is first created.

Just like applying/removing default blocks on child pages, it would be nice to apply/remove attributes on child pages.

I know I am dredging up an old post here, but
I came across this post while doing a google search. You can easily batch edit page properties from the dashboard. Go to the sitemap and then choose the Page Search tab. From here you can batch edit page properties. Check out my tutorial for more details.
