Mass editing of anchors

The List module makes it possible to display the content of several fields at once and gives you the ability to edit several records with one action.

This allows you, for example, to quickly add human-readable anchors to all content elements on a page at once.

1. Click the Show columns button and enable the field "Human-readable URL #anchor".

   

2. Select the content elements you want to update, then click the Edit columns button

   Using the Edit columns button will open the header field together with every enabled column in the list.

   Note

   In TYPO3 v12, this button does not exist yet. Open the Single Table View by clicking on the table's title "Page content ()" (see screenshot above) first, then select the content elements. The middle "Edit" button in the table will provide the same functionality.

   

3. Edit the anchor fields of multiple content elements

   

   Note

   The buttons to generate an anchor from the header's contents will only work if the header field is visible in the editing form. Otherwise, you can only manually edit the human-readable anchor.
