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

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.
