  Please provide a way to mass edit posts, comments categories, mass delete future posts.
  The mass deletion of future posts is really needed.
  Thanks

  Thank you for placing due diligence to this matter Staff. Thank you again for all the hard work you do each day. I really appreciate your time and kindness. I want to weigh in for managing multiple posts as I could copyright protect each post using Copyscape-Do Not Copy to dissuade scrapers from stealing my material and other people using my material and not citing me as the the author and creator of the material I write for Second Chance to Live.

  Thank you Mark, Matt and all the other support staff. Have a great week. Craig

  @ thebemusedcapybara
  There is no way to mass edit all posts and add an author’s name in one go that I’m aware of. You have chosen a theme that does not display the author’s name.

  Did you know that you can switch to a theme that does display author’s names and solve your problem very easily? Also as you are the only blogger on the blog then identifying yourself as the author seems redundant. In fact your About page does this already:

  I used the copyright notice to illustrate to thebemusedcapybara that there was already clear indication on the blog that bemusedcapybara was the only author. So now I’m trembling in my boots worrying that bemusedcapybara might sue me … lol :D

  These features have been requested but there is no update from staff as yet. The plugins that do exist are for wordpress.org software and not for wordpress.com.

  Another option if someone isn’t comfortable using phpmyadmin, is to download the imacros plugin for firefox, record a quick clip of you deleting a post, and set it on a loop for however many you want to delete. Then go get a drink… or some sunlight ;) and it will take care of itself.
