Quoting Nick Young nick_young@ncsu.edu:
Surely there has to be a way to do this: (Drupal 6)
I have a bunch of nodes in the same content type, that all have the same taxonomy term applied to them. What i need to do, is update/change the term on all the nodes. I know i can do this individually, but what if i had 100 nodes....1000 nodes that i needed to change?
Do i have to go to each node, edit, change the term, and then save? Surely not (i hope not).
Will all nodes with taxonomy foo change to taxonomy bar? Do you have a need to keep taxonomy foo after the change?
I've searched the modules and boards for answers, but none seem to provide the functionality im looking for. A comparable solution is the 'Mass Change' module, but that does not affect taxonomy settings.
You can do this in a batch operation but I don't know of a module that has been created for you. Check the api.drupal.org for node_load, node_save and taxonomy_nodeapi.
