NetBox version

v3.1.8

Feature type

Change to existing functionality

Proposed functionality

Allow an empty replacement string in the bulk rename form.

Use case

Removing parts of a component name without having a replacement is currently not allowed, because the form requires a replacement.

e.g. all components are called "MPO-A", "MPO-B", ... and have to be renamed to "A", "B" ...

Database changes

none.

External dependencies

none.

Allow an empty replacement string in the bulk rename form.

How, specifically, do you propose implementing this?

simply allow the replacement field to be empty (as in empty string) and replacing as usual (but with an empty string).
