Quality of life improvements for down the line - Batch Actions

Hello!

After a week or so managing a fairly sizable content catalog, I've made note of a few improvements that could greatly benefit content managers. They are just ideas that likely have been suggested already and/or have already been discussed internally for future releases. Mainly they revolve around batch actions.

Bulk upload of series - Allow a user to create a series, and upload a group of properly named PDFs, converting them all to releases automatically. Meta data about each release will of course still need to be added manually.

Bulk publishing of series - Add a publish batch action to a series, allowing you to select all or a range and publish (allowing you to send or not send a notification about the range of titles).

Allow a user to shift click on either end of a range of pages in a release to select a group of pages to apply batch actions, like delete.

These are definitely some good ideas, especially as more creators and publishers come on board with a lot of already completed work.

Are there any other suggestions that you think would be helpful that I can document?

Thank you for the reply.

At present, these were the features I think I would have found most helpful, given that I was publishing a larger catalog. If/when I come across anything else, I shall be sure to share!

@ApDigital Both of these features exist as globalcomix admin facing ones - they're not really polished as a UI but we can definitely help if there's large amounts of stuff you need to get out!

@Christopher thank you! I will take advantage of that for the next go round. How should I reach out if I need such help?
