The content management system offers bulk operations with created pages (Pages) in the tree. These include operations such as moving pages, bulk publishing, archiving, linking, creating copies of pages, or bulk deletion.

It depends on the version of Kentico used whether it offers all the mentioned bulk operation options.

 

Procedure for performing a bulk operation:

1. In the Kentico administration → Pages → the page containing the subpages you need to edit in bulk.

2. Select the "Listing" tab at the top above the page tree:

  • in the "Selected pages" field, you choose whether you want to edit only the selected subpages (by checking the boxes), or "All pages" for all subpages

4. In the "(select an action)" field, you select the bulk operation to be performed on the selected/all subpages:



5. Before starting the operation, Kentico will ask you if you are sure about this step and will offer additional options
