Writing and publishing

One change.
Every post it should touch.

Tick posts on the PixelGlass posts list, or select every post your filters find, and change them together. One change, all or nothing: if one post refuses it, none of them change.

Say it to your agent

Add the tag Archive to every post tagged Events, and stop featuring them.

  • list_posts
  • list_tags
  • change_posts

Two ways to do it.

By hand

In the admin

  1. Open Posts or Pages, and narrow the list with Status, Language, Author, Tag, Access or a search.
  2. Tick the posts you want. Once one is ticked, Select all takes every post the filters find.
  3. In the bar that opens, choose Authors to replace or add authors, or Tag to add or remove a tag.
  4. Choose Access for Public, Members only or Paid members only, or More to feature, stop featuring or delete.
  5. Press the change in its menu: Apply, Add tag, Remove tag or the verb under More. The list says how many posts changed.

With your agent

In Claude, ChatGPT or your editor

The tools it calls

  • A new writer on old posts

    A food magazine adds its second writer to the byline of the forty posts she co-wrote, in one Apply.

  • Members only, from the second year

    A newsletter about chess sorts its posts by Newest published, ticks the second year and sets Access to Members only.

Questions, answered

How do I change many posts at once on PixelGlass?
Tick them on the posts list, or select every post your filters find, then choose Authors, Tag, Access or More in the bar and press Apply.
What can I change in bulk?
The authors, a tag to add or remove, who can read (public, members or paying members), featured or not, and delete. The same bar works on the pages list.
What if one post refuses the change?
Nothing changes. A bulk change on PixelGlass is all or nothing, and the list names the post that refused it.
Who can make bulk changes?
Editors, admins and the owner. Each change counts as an edit to every post it touches.
Can my agent change many posts at once?
Yes. An editor's agent finds the posts with list_posts and makes one change to all of them with change_posts, all or nothing.
