Moving Multiple Topics

Post by Techno »

Apologies if this is not the correct forum to ask, but we are working through a GIT server.

Flare 12 does an excellent job of moving complete Folders including sorting out any Links in each topic.

However, we need to split a folder which contains over 100 files into two more appropriate folders.

We cannot seem to find any way to move multiple files, and it takes an age to move or even delete Topics individually - which we suspect has become part of the GIT process.

The methods used in the normal Windows File Explorer do not appear to work, only allowing one file at a time to be highlighted.

MadCap's on-line Help doesn't appear to offer any suggestions either.

Can this in fact be done?

In the Content Explorer, click the Show Files button on the toolbar. That'll split the CE into two panes. In the right pane, you can select more than one file at a time and then can drag those files to the desired folder in the left pane. I'm going on memory, but I'm certain this'll work for you.

HTH.
