Make sure you spell it correctly. === Step 2: Select action, insert reason, replace and pattern, tags or free text ===   OTRS-Members: first fill in the ID or URL and then switch to ''OTRS- remove tags''. With ''OTRS- add'' you can add any template to the permission section without removing speedy-deletion- and related-tags.  Check ''Clean permission-section?'' to remove other stuff from the permission section, if it exists. === Step 3: Load as many files as you want to change ===   Only files that are selected and in the dialog will be changed. [[<tvar name=file1>:File:VisualFileChange queryMore.png</tvar>|To get more files]], scroll down or click on "more". However, do not crash your browser loading too many files.</translate> <translate> Instead, you can continue where you stopped using the "more options" in the start dialog or the [[#Step 5: Execute|automatically created profile]]. === Step 4: Select items to perform the action on ===   There are only items listed, originally uploaded by the specified user.</translate> <translate> If there are deleted images, the numbers are discontinuous.</translate> <translate> Script will detect a lot of problem- and OTRS-tags and common license-types and show them under each thumbnail.</translate> [[:File:MassDeleteOTRS.png|<translate> Example</translate>]] [[File:VisualFileChange selectDialog.png|center]] [[File:VisualFileChange cuteSelect.png|thumb|<translate> Just want to pick some files with or without a category?

In addition, you can preview the changes before they are made.</translate>]] ;<translate> RegExpr {{anchor|RegExpr}} '''/R/'''</translate> <translate> A RegExpr also known as regular expression or regex is a pattern used to match more than one "string" (e.g. the image text or a title)</translate>. <translate> They can be really helpful anywhere, so, if you are unexperienced don't be lazy and learn them; the earlier, the better.  In the cute selection dialog, insert the RegExpr without flags <small>(they are currently not supported)</small> (<code>Test.*</code>); however when performing a custom replace, insert the RegExpr with flags (<tvar name=icode><code>/\{\{FlickrView.*\|\d{4}\}\}/ig</code></tvar>). Don't forget to escape "special characters".  Please test your RegExpr before using and use the opportunity to examine the changes the current set of replacement rules would cause to avoid undesired replacements.</translate> <translate> You can use https://regex101.com/ (or similar tools) to test your RegExpr.  When using regular expressions, VFC follows the same convention as Perl, PHP, and others that in the replacement string, <code>$0</code> matches the whole matched string, <code>$1</code> matches the first parenthesized expression, <code>$2</code> the second parenthesized expression, etc. So, for example, the regular expression <tvar name=1><code><nowiki>/[|]\s*[Ss]ource\s*=\s*([^|}]*) on MyCoolWebsite/</nowiki></code></tvar> with a replacement string <tvar name=2><code><nowiki>| Source = {{MyCoolWebsite|$1}}</nowiki></code></tvar> would turn <tvar name=3><code>|source=FOO.BAR on MyCoolWebsite</nowiki></code></tvar> into <tvar name=4><code><nowiki>| Source = {{MyCoolWebsite|FOO.BAR}}</nowiki></code></tvar>.

Before executing, the script saves your input into an auto-profile.</translate> <translate> This allows you to continue at the last loaded files.

If you send too many simultaneous requests to the API, errors may rise. Users who are not <abbr title="IPs in wiki-jargon">logged in</abbr> should only send one request at one time.</translate> <translate> In case of errors, set "ask for confirmation after ... edits" to less than 8 and wait a while when the dialog prompts you whether to continue.</translate> <translate> We regret this limitation but cannot change it because it is on the server side.
