Is there any way to edit the same custom field for multiple entries at once?
Something like an entry equivalent of the field editor add-on.
I know Zenbu has title/url editing available, just wondered if it was possible with custom fields?

OK, not ideal, but as all my data was coming in from an XML feed, I created another CVS file with a column of unique fields (matching unique fields in my entries) and added the text that I wanted into another column.
I then imported all this via Datagrab add-on.
Worked fine.
I've not seen one for the control panel, but it can certainly be done via Safecracker using a template visible only to logged in members of the appropriate member group. Depending on the nature of the field(s) being edited and how many are being edited at once though, you can quickly run into some performance limitations.
