Changing info for multiple eps/files simult. [OLD REQUEST]

Post by Yonzie »

For some animes, there are a lot of episodes/files that lack info, like title, time, group, quality, resolution etc.

It would be great if it was possible to change this simultaneously for more than one file at a time.

This should be implemented the following way:

At the bottom of the page for each anime, there should be a link called `Mass Edit'. This would lead to a page very similar to the Mass Add page, with the difference that everything is editable, and all files for each episode are listed. To the left of each file is a checkbox.
You make the changes at the top like when you mass add, and proceed to check off all the files that should be edited. For things like EPtitle and EPlength, it should update if anything is changed (checkbox might be appropriate here too).

Having to open a separate page for each file I want to change something on is probably *the* biggest hurdle that stops me from running amok with change requests, so I would be very grateful for the implementation of the above.

Of course I do... there's not much action in here anyway ^^

The only request in the forum that remotely resembles this one is: [cgi] set source and storage for multiple files [ONTODO] (Partly done now, ne?)
But it refers to one's mylist and not to the overview of each anime... :roll:

Btw, you can mark this thread "done" :P:
[cgi] tracking if a file is currently shared by a user
