evaluating a couple of issue tracking options for my company, and
love a lot of things about lighthouse but the lack of batch update
might be a deal breaker for me.</p>
<p>Eh. I just noticed this is resolved. Is it already in lighthouse
and did I miss it? :( If not, would love an ETA, even if it's just
"soon" or "not soon".</p></div>jonathan.zhantag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/104822009-02-01T04:49:13Z2009-02-01T04:49:13ZEdit multiple items at once?<div><p>Jonathan, it's high, the base of the code for mass editing is
completed and we've been using it on our side for some time to make
sure things are smooth. As for an ETA I will have to check with
Rick and see where we stand officially on this.</p></div>Will Duncantag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/104822009-02-01T04:50:48Z2009-02-01T04:50:48ZEdit multiple items at once?<div><p>Thanks for the quick reply! <em>fingers crossed</em></p>

assigning tickets to people and for changing milestones.</p>
<p>Other Person Performing First Multi-Developer Task</p>
<pre>
what is the easiest view to use to move lighthouse tickets around?
it'd be great if there were a view that showed all open tickets with the milestones as buckets that I could drag n' drop into...
</pre>
<p>Me</p>
<pre>
I view all open tickets, then open 10-20 as tabs that i want to do the same thing with; make that change, close those tabs, repeat
there is, sadly, not a bulk edit interface

still experimental. I want to make sure it <em>works</em> before I
give the power to move thousands of tickets across
accounts/projects in the hands of the users :)</p></div>Ricktag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/104822009-04-10T12:35:15Z2009-04-10T12:35:15ZEdit multiple items at once?<div><p>batch edit would be great! Doing a lot of clicks now...</p>
<p>thxsn in advance!</p></div>matthijstag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/104822009-04-15T19:37:09Z2009-04-15T19:37:09ZEdit multiple items at once?<div><p>So we're in mid April now. Is there a new estimate for when this
will be implemented?</p>
<p>I really want this feature as I have thousands of tickets and
many could be deleted or moved away.</p>
<p>It is a HUGE pain the way things currently stand. It is getting
to the point where I will actively start looking for a new solution
very soon.</p></div>Evil Trouttag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/104822009-04-15T19:47:36Z2009-04-15T19:47:49ZEdit multiple items at once?<div><p>We've had the backend done for awhile actually. You can make a
simple API call to kick off the mass edit operation. See the ruby
script at the bottom of
http://help.lighthouseapp.com/faqs/ticket-workflow/ticket-keyword-updates</p></div>Ricktag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/104822009-04-15T19:53:22Z2009-04-15T19:53:22ZEdit multiple items at once?<div><p>With all due respect, that would work as a one-off fix, but I
have a team of moderators all using Lighthouse and I couldn't tell
them to use an API to edit tickets in bulk.</p>
<p>I really need the interface to support it.</p></div>Evil Trouttag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/104822009-04-15T19:58:02Z2009-04-15T19:58:02ZEdit multiple items at once?<div><p>Robin, apologize for the delay on this feature. It got pushed
back in response to more demanding features. We've got the majority
of the UI work done on it and will have it deployed as soon as it's
ready.</p></div>Justin Palmertag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/104822009-04-15T19:59:56Z2009-04-15T19:59:56ZEdit multiple items at once?<div><p>Oh I know, I'm doing migrations for other people every week now
that send us requests. I absolutely need it in the UI too :) We're
finishing up another much-needed UI redesign, and I'm pushing with
all my might to make mass edits the next thing that gets
handled.</p></div>Ricktag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/104822009-04-17T13:16:25Z2009-04-17T13:16:25ZEdit multiple items at once?<div><p>Yes PLEASE do push this - it's a pain to update multiple tickets
and the API thing simply is too complex for daily use.</p></div>rasmus.luckowtag:help.lighthouseapp.com,2008-09-20:Comment/104822009-04-28T03:10:04Z2009-04-28T03:10:04ZEdit multiple items at once?<div><p>Pushed, please start a new topic if you have problems though.
