How can you add the same Link/s to multiple items at the one go?

There seems to be no way to do this in the multi-edit panel.

At this point there is no multi-edit for multiple value tables (links, credits, tracks) but thank you for the suggestion. We'll keep it in mind for the future.

You can use copy/paste to speed up the process of adding the same link to each entry (copy the whole line from the Links tab, hit Command-N for next entry and hit Command-V to paste the link in, then Command-N again for next entry, etc.) If you have a large database and want to add the same link to all entries you could even setup an Automator task to do this for you.

Thanks Nora - and yes copy-paste is the way I am doing this - a bit laborious but will do till, hopefully, an update, another one to the long list I am sure.

Cheers
