Bulk-management Organisation Organization Articles- Folders Move Moving
What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?
Currently, articles can only be moved one at a time. There is no multi-select or batch option. Reorganising a world (whether correcting a misfiled article, restructuring after a campaign session, or splitting a growing category), requires opening each article individually to manually reassign its folder, or attempting precise drag-and-drop within crowded navigation trees. This is tedious and high-risk. If you accidentally select the wrong destination folder (easy with deep hierarchies) or drop an article in the wrong place, you must repeat the entire process to fix it. For worlds with dozens or hundreds of articles, this discourages maintenance and leads to messy, "junk drawer" categories that degrade discoverability.How does this feature request address the current situation?
A Bulk Move interface would allow users to select multiple articles via checkboxes (similar to Gmail or Notion) and move them to a destination folder in a single action. This would:What are other uses for this feature request?
And as a reward for making it to the end of this suggestion...
Show spoiler
Here are pictures of my cat, waiting patiently for me to come to bed or play.... whilst I am still trapped here, moving articles one by one. Send help (and checkboxes).
The Team's Response
Thanks for the suggestion! Mass edit for articles in the way you describe (or similar enough) is planned. It will work similarly to the mass edit feature that already exists for images (see https://www.worldanvil.com/learn/images/mass-edit-image for details).

on 2026-02-23 13:23This would be great, especially for new people looking to bulk add statblocks to their campaigns. Bulk or batch add and remove would be great for organizing.

on 2026-02-20 03:55Also a way to sort the articles, like alphabetically. You could additionally number your articles, like sessions, and then be able to sort those quickly.

on 2026-01-29 13:36Yes! I just found myself wishing for something like this, because two kingdoms recently fused during my D&D campaign and now I have to move all settlements under the new article for the fused kingdom...
