Banner to warn viewers of an old topic

Is it possible to bulk select more than 50 topics at a time?

I believe so – just have to load the next set of the topic list. You could also do this from the console, too.

Batch tagging through console

Something quick that I think will work. Might want to verify against a couple of records first before uncommenting the line to add the tag. tag = Tag.find_by(name: 'soundcloud') category = Category.find_by(name: 'music') Topic.where(category: category).each do |topic| if topic.first_post.raw =~ /<your keyword here>/ puts topic.first_post.raw # topic.tags << tag end end

You’d have to adapt the script to find all topics prior to a date to add that tag automatically.

To be fair, this is a #feature request. Jeff’s the product manager and I can see his point about adding banners like this to core being noisy. But there are other ways to accomplish it if you find it necessary for your community.
