Bulk settings

On every page on Commspace there is an option to use bulk settings, instead of changing information individually, one item at a time.

For every page, the bulk settings have some rules. You can apply bulk changes by:

  1. Applying a filter. If you apply any changes with a filter applied, the changes will be applicable to everything in that filter.

    Tip: apply multiple filters to identify what you want to change in bulk.

  2. Select the individual items you want to set by clicking the tick box on the left-hand side of your line item.

  3. To change information using "More Actions", the item has to be removable (tip: item will have a dustbin on the right-hand side, or you can filter on "removable")

* If you're unsure if your statement is meant to be on your Statements page, please reach out to our Commspace Support team.

Note: please take great care to not delete items if you're not 100% sure. We cannot restore items manually uploaded as we do not have access to it. If you accidendantally deleted a feed statement, we should be able to restore it, however it might take some time to identify the correct item on our servers.
