Mass edit imported contacts

Open dosch opened this issue 6 years ago • 6 comments

I just imported 733 people into Monica with a vCard. But as you all know vCards will have many errors and I want to use the occasion to really clean up my address book.

It would really help if Monica had all or some of these features:

  • keyboard navigation to quickly move to the next contact, edit, save etc.
  • move from one contact to another, w/o having to go back to the complete list
  • Batch edit multiple contacts (add a tag to all "best friends" or "family members" at once. for example)

I could maybe do this before the import. But I hope that Monica can really become my mothership of contacts and calendars... (it has all the potential to become so ;-) )

Good idea, love the keyboard navigation stuff.

I've just bulk imported a bunch of contacts and would like to bulk edit genders. A tick box to the left of the name on the contacts page for batch editing would be great.

Even a Button to delete all contacts would be helpful. I have tried to import all my contacts using a .VCF which is way below 10MB as specified, but somehow only 600 out of 800 contacts were imported and now I have to either delete 600 entries manually or by connecting via an SQL-GUI to the MySQL monica-DB on the server in order to purge the information imported.
