Need help sorting out how to use 23? Or have you discovered one of those nasty bugs?

Need to edit titles in batch mode

StefanRadtke   December 09, 2008, 11:14 AM

Hi I uploaded several pictures with a wrong title. However, all the pictures have the same title and should have the same other title. In Help I read about 'batch operations' but cannot find this.

How can I do this or is it possible at all (other than removing all photos and uploading again with correct title.)

Thanks, Stefan

You can find batch operations in the top-right of the page, just between "upload photos" and "options".

However, there's no way to batch change the titles/words of individual photos (since we're assuming all photos to be unique...). The easiest way to do a batch-style change is to click "Edit these photos" on the front page and then editing all the text in the individual boxes on that page...

There is no place to put a title on the top of the photopage. I've changed my settings so the title is not put in the description and yet all my photos have uploaded with that title in the description anyway. There is no place in the "organize" section for actually changing the title. The only thing I see is a place to add or change a description and add tags. How do I add or change a title? The provision is not there.

Hey Paul,

First some clarification: The is no distinction between titles and words on 23; everything is collected in Words. To changes the words associated with multiple photos at once, click the "Edit these photos" link in the top right hand corner under your profile -- next to the slideshow link.

That is an infinitely handier way of editing the photos than the organizer. Excellent! Thank you very much. How much search traffic does 23 get when the titles are in the description I wonder. But your explanation is clear and I like that editing interface much better. I can see all the photos at once and thus immediately see which ones need description editing, tags and so forth. Very good.
