Not able to find/activate the settings in RM that allow us to bulk edit media titles etc … any ideas why?

Hello,
Thank you for contacting Rank Math today.
I was able to check your site. The option to enable bulk editing seems it was already enabled on your site. You can add or hide columns from the posts list page from the screen options. One of your plugins was however conflicting with the bulk editing option,
Post Types Order
. I deactivated it and was able to use the bulk edit options. Please check the screencast I have added in the sensitive section.Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

It’s not working in media/images, I don’t see any way to bulk edit titles etc in media library
Hello,
To change the bulk editing options for your media files, you need to head to Rank math > General Settings and disable the option to redirect attachments. Once done you can head over to Rank math > Titles & Meta > Attachments, enable Bulk Editing options and save your settings. I already did this for you, and you should now be able to bulk edit the title and alt tags for the images in media library.
Hope that helps. If you have any further question(s), please let us know. Thank you.
Ah, thank you, much appreciated! 🙂
Spoke too soon, we see it’s now enabled, but we can’t actually edit anything, it’s not allowing us to enter anything, and it doesn’t show any save options.
Hello,
The access was removed when you marked the post as resolved.
Please add the access again in the sensitive section so we can look into this further.
I do hope you have gone through the settings in my previous reply.
Looking forward to helping you. Thank you.

Hello,
I have updated the sensitive data as requested. Can you please check further?
Thank you.
Added the logins again, thank you.
We can see the edit fields in media, but the fields are “locked” and we can’t actually enter any text into them.
Hello,
The plugin
Post Types Order
is known to cause issues with bulk editing. Since you seem to have it activated on your site, you will need to deactivate it to use the bulk editing optionsTo resolve the issue you will need to get in touch wit the plugin support as they change the cursor to move type to allow for drag and drop while on the post/media lists. They can modify the plugin to exclude the drag/drop feature when the cursor is on certain columns.
Hope that helps and please do not hesitate to let us know if you need our assistance with anything else.
OK, thank you for finding this, we can disable that plugin, so all good.
