Bulk and Quick Edit for Your Property Listings

Opening a listing just to change its status or price is slow when you have a full catalog. Bulk and quick edit puts your own property fields right inside the WordPress quick edit and bulk edit panels, so you update type, purpose, status, price, or any custom field straight from the Properties list. Edit one listing in seconds, or change many at once, without ever opening the full editor.

What is bulk and quick edit?

WordPress already has a Quick Edit option to change basic details from a list, and a Bulk Edit option to update several items at once. By default, neither knows about your property fields. This feature adds the fields you choose to both panels, so you can change a property’s type, purpose, status, or price directly from the Properties list. Quick edit handles one listing in place, while bulk edit applies a change to every listing you select.

How to set it up

  1. Go to Real Estate Manager, open Settings, then Property Settings.
  2. Find the Admin Bulk and Quick Edit box.
  3. Add one field key per line, for example property_type, property_purpose, or property_status.
  4. Save the settings.
  5. On the Properties screen, those fields now appear in both the quick edit and bulk edit panels.

This is the third of three list management tools. Pair it with admin filtering and custom admin columns to find, see, and edit listings all from one screen.

Quick edit and bulk edit, side by side

Quick Edit

Edit a single listing in place. Click Quick Edit on any property and change its type, purpose, status, price, or other fields without opening the full editor.

Bulk Edit

Select several listings, choose Bulk Edit, and apply the same change to all of them at once, perfect for status or purpose updates across many properties.

Why it helps

Edit without the full editor

Change a status or price from the list in seconds, instead of opening and saving the whole listing.

Update many at once

Mark a batch of properties as sold or change their purpose in a single bulk action.

Your fields, your choice

Add any field key, standard or custom, and it appears in both edit panels. No code required.

Manage at scale

Keeping a large catalog up to date is fast when you can edit straight from the Properties list.
