    I need to do a major reorganization of my place categories renaming some deleting others and moving places into them.

    Is there a merge capability built in that will let me move multiple places to a new category. I am looking for similar to what I find at geodirectory>>Multilocation>>Manage Locations>>Merge

    I have found a solution that works quite well but please let me know if there is a better way.

    My solution:

    0. Add the new categories if not merging
    1. the business place categories screen shows all categories.
    2. I click the number in the count column for the category I want to move
    3. that displays all the places in that category so I select them all ((I don’t see any way except selecting each one individually. Am I missing something?))
    4. bulk action>>edit
    5. select the new category I want them in
    6. Update
    7. delete the old category

    Works like a charm except for having to click each one to select it.

    For #3, you should be able to tick the box next to “title” in the header of the table.

    Most excellent Guust. Thanks. I knew it had to be there somewhere.

    Did I mention that I LOVE Geodir?
