    Hi All,

    I have more than 2000 posts and each post contains almost 1000+ tags. Now i want to update all the posts with new additional tags in one go. Is there any simple way??

    Regards-

    I don't think there is a simple way to achieve this rather than manually editing each post. Only if you want all the posts to have the same tags I think you could execute a MySQL query (but I don't see the point why you would like all the posts to have the same tags).

    Our site is very much dependent on tags as we are using it for some specific purpose.

    Looking for solution please.

    My point was that I believe you can achieve what you want with a MySQL query, but all the posts will have the same tags.
    I guess your website have different tags for each post. Am I wrong?
    Case when I don't see any other solution than to manually edit each post.

    Hello,

    Really appreciate your reply, well we have 1000s of posts overall, but around 2k posts of which we need tags to be updated. Is there way to run query to first search for tags for example: A,B,C,D and than update those tags with A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H

    Thanks.
