Edit more that one course at a time for the sliders. The ability to select multiple courses and edit things such as enable course review, course is active/inactive, and course due date bulk editing would be AWESOME. Now I need to do several licks, type, and click out every time for every course (and I have a lot of courses) if I just want to do something like change the due dates.

I've marked this idea as currently available based on the Q3 2024 release. I've created a few follow on ideas to help gather needs for additional capabilities:
https://ideas.absorblms.com/ideas/LMS-I-4171 - Support for additional fields
https://ideas.absorblms.com/ideas/LMS-I-4172 - Support for bulk update of ILCs
https://ideas.absorblms.com/ideas/LMS-I-4173 - Support for bulk updates of Curricula
Next, it would be incredible to be able to bulk edit Global Resources. Changing availability rules and moving categories is time consuming when we need to go one-by-one. I've added this as it's own idea here (LMS-I-4070), but also wanted to call out the need on this thread since this great functionality was just released for Online Courses.
Another option I would like to see is the ability to set a value for manual time of completion. Our company has thousands of controlled documents that open in a Document Management System. As Absorb LMS is unable to track time spent in another application, we set the time of completion to five minutes.
This is certainly a welcome update, but from my experience, the Tags option replaces any existing tags, rather than adding any newly applied tags.
Update: We've implemented bulk editing of online courses. The new capability was included in our Q3 2024 release. We are considering ILCs next.
We have multiple sessions within an ILT. Each of these sessions needs to be changed in the same way (max users). It would be much better, less tedious, less prone to error, if we could make that change all at once. Please consider.
We're currently in the process of updating 100s of courses with this simple change and it's taking so much time away from more important tasks my team could be focused on.
Yes, adding on my agreement. Currently updating 300 courses one by one when i need the same thing done to all of them.
Agree completely that updating courses in bulk would be amazing. We have, say, 70 users to move to an updated curriculum keeping their progress consistent. That means about 400 manual edits (each with multiple steps). We also don't want them to receive emails every time we mark a course complete. But want them to receive them afterwards. More individual, manual steps. Please add this functionality.
Being able to do anything in bulk would be ideal! If we have to edit 100+ courses, the most efficient way is to assure that we can do it in a bulk fashioin.
If there is concern about accidentally doinig something in the system, also make an "undo" button. And further, make it so you have to confirm that the action you wish to take is the correct action.
Chiming in here to potentially include functionality to bulk specify which electronic signature is selected for courses. I recently just converted our environment to Azure SSO and it appears I'll need to manually go into each active course and change the electronic signature Method from Authenticate to PIN.
Where are we at with this feature? As many other Admins, I am needing to do bulk course edits and going into each course will take me days to make the edits.
System admins should have the ability to bulk edit a ton of things. It's extremely limiting right now, and will not work long term for our company.
Our L&D want to reorganise courses so they can be found more easily. They have two options, add new tags into every course one-by-one or add new categories and edit each course one-by-one and reassign into new category. Neither option is practical because there is no bulk option available, editing thousands of courses is not a good use of time. More bulk update features are urgently needed.
Also the ability to bulk update permissions within course like "Enable Manager Enrollment."
This necessary to include the required flexibility. This would save so much time and reduce errors.
This is probably one of the most needed features for us right now. All course settings need to be editable in bulk. There are SO many courses i need to update its virtually impossible without the help of professional services from Absorb. This could be resolved much easier.
Please allow us the ability to activate/deactivate courses in bulk. We are integrated with LinkedIn Learning and really need the ability to be able to deactivate many courses at once or we're going to have to go through thousands of courses individually.
Bulk actions for course editing is absolutely necessary, as described by the numerous posts before me.
If we can add being able to bulk edit courses for the Manager Enrollment function that would be amazing too! I am looking at manually updating 1000+ courses which will be incredibly time consuming. I hope this feature is implemented soon.
