How to Change User-Specific Settings on Multiple Folders at Once?

avatar

Hello,

I am curious what the process is to change "user specific settings" on multiple folders at once (not on all the entries within the folders, but on the folders themselves so that any entries under them could inherit the settings).

I know that for overriding credential settings on multiple folders, multi-selecting the folders and right-click -> batch edit will not work (it will instead override creds on all entries within all selected folders) so the workaround was to use advanced search to find all the folders you want to override credentials on, select the folders in the search results, then right-click -> batch edit -> change saved credentials (which works).

However, using the same process to try and set user-specific settings does not seem to work - I multi-select folders from the advanced search results, right-click -> batch edit -> user specific settings but nothing happens (no dialog appears).

Is there another way I should be going about this?

Thanks

David Willis

Hello, just wondering if there was an update/ETA on a fix for this? Or is there any workaround in the meantime to set user-specific settings on folders in bulk?

Thanks!

Hello David,

Thank you for your reply,

Unfortunately, I do not have an ETA regarding this,

That being said, I will see if there is perhaps a more efficient work around then manually Editing the entries one at a time.
