Describe the issue

Hi, I’m trying to update the Series on a number of books but it does not matter how many I select it only update one of them (not all)

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Go into an existing series and select multiple books
  2. Click the pencil edit option, and remove the current Series Selection
  3. Add the new Series Selection and hit submit
  4. And then hit save

Audiobookshelf version

V2.2.14

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Docker

Sorry, I’ve just noticed that the batch update option does not work as I assumed it would, I expected it to provide me with one single/general form which I could then update and apply to all the books in one go, rather than provide me with all the forms for all the books I selected.

Please can this be changed to a Feature Request - as it would be great if i can make a one to many change, rather than have to do the same change multiple times.

many thanks

Unfortunately this would overwrite the sequence if you have it set

Thanks @advplyr , how can I find that form you shared ?

When I select multiple books, and then click the pencil icon, it create a list a forms for me to edit each book, there is not single form that would update all selected books ?
