[Status: Backburner ⏳] Mass actions: Changing tasks titles or prefixes
Hi Team!
We need to change task titles in mass quantities beyond the duplication of templates.
It would be much faster and easier to utilize mass actions and select all the tasks you wish to change the name, prefix, or even ending.
This would help our process greatly!!
Thank you,
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, I do understand where you're coming from of course. We will continue to pass on the feedback and vote count over here to the team👍🏼
Just backing up everything that's been said here - this is important for us as well.
Thank you for supporting this suggestion Shona Snowden🙌🏼
Mass editing and addition of prefixes would be very helpful. There seems to be already many tasks that can be done on a bulk basis. thanks
Thank you for adding your support here Jonathan Lee!
Yep, chiming in that my team would also greatly appreciate this feature being added. Thanks!

Big BIIIIG upvote from us here too - ability to mass-edit prefixes and titles would be a huge help to our teams.
This now has 81 upvotes - still not enough to get some love and attention?
Hello Angela Kennewell, thank you for upvoting this idea! We are constantly passing your feedback to our Product Development Team and they are aware of the popularity of this request, however, it couldn't be prioritized yet. We will keep you informed in case we have an update 🙂
Big upvote from everyone at my company. We need these features.
Yes please! This would be incredibly useful to our organization. We manage digital content projects and have "projects" that we number in order by Month and each Project has anywhere between 6-16 individual tasks. We include the numerical code of the individual "project" in each task title. Right now we have to manually use table view to change the number and suffix (project name) in each task, which is very time consuming. We've used the export/import find/replace method, which can save some time. But it would be really helpful if we could use the TABLE view to do a find/replace within Wrike to adjust each prefix/suffix without having to use Excel. Please and thank you!!
This would be a game changer
Hey Jeff Cassell, Krisha Yurkiewicz, Daniel King, noted! 🙂

This would be a huge benefit and timesaver for our team! Really hoping this gets pushed through!
Hi Juan - I am looking for more of a mass editing on a project-by-project basis, where we could do it like a mass update. Either with numbers or with a naming convention. Thanks for sending those links, but yeah, still looking for something more on the project and task level.
Thanks!
Hi Michelle Potts, thank you for your reply. We will keep you informed if we receive any updates 👍
Hi @... the ability to mass add a prefix to tasks that never had one is great, but for us, we really need the ability to mass EDIT that prefix. In the event we realize we made a mistake, or in our case, we have so many projects with different prefix configurations and we want to standardize them, that some need to be changed altogether, but already have one so I wouldn't want to add another. I hope that makes sense. Basically PLEASE add this, seems like it could be an easy tweak now that we can mass edit tasks to add a prefix. In Wrike is there a feature to do a find all and replace maybe?
It's not possible at the moment Adriel Ewell, but we logged your feedback and sent it to our Product team. Thank you!

Just wanted to join this upvote party! Very similar to Krisha's comment, we assign codes to projects/campaigns that require a project manager post-submission, and it would be helpful to have a way to assign that code to in a less time-consuming way than by clicking into each individual item.
Noted, thanks for sharing Kelsey Rudolph. We've shared your feedback with the team 👍
