Having the CMS is great, but its input mechanism still feels like editing a MySQL-database. Therefore, some ideas to make using the CMS and Editor easier and faster for us WF-enthousiasts.

1. Keyboard shortcuts to speed up changes and allow for faster data input

Right now, the CMS editor is mouse-based. Thus, making changes ultimately ends up with a LOT of mouse movement and clicking the "SAVE" button. I'd opt-in to allow for more keyboard-based control of the CMS and the Editor to improve speed, with options such as:

• Save CMS item (CTRL + S)
• Next or previous item - and possibly move through entire CMS (CTRL + Arrows)
• Search inside collection (CTRL + F)
• Search inside CMS (CTRL + SHIFT + F)
• Save as Draft (CTRL + SHIFT + S)
• Publish all (CTRL + SHIFT + P)

2. Batch Edit : Edit multiple CMS-items at once

Editing multiple CMS-items in the Designer and Editor is a pain. It takes endless mouse action (and thus time) to do simple tasks such as assign a reference field, and then save the change. [see point 1] Especially if you make changes to the settings of an existing CMS-collection, changing 10+ items is horrendous.

Currently we can "delete", "draft" and "archive" items. Looking through this forum we like to have these options to edit multiple items at once:

• Assign a (multi)-reference field for multiple items
• Change any value for multiple items [such as rating, price, published date, author, etc.]
• Duplicate multiple items
