 * I’m trying to batch change a bunch of wiki pages from published to draft. I select,
   then choose edit just like any other post list, and I get the selected entries.
   Change status to Draft. <Submit> Nothing. <Submit> Nothing. The submit button
   isn’t working. Any help?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcant-batch-modify%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi doulos12,
 * I tried the batch edit and was able to change a bunch of checked wiki articles
   from published to draft, then repeated the process and made the published again.
 * You might try it with posts to see if it is just related to wiki articles or 
   open the browser dev tools and go to the JavaScript console before trying it,
   to see if there are JavaScript errors showing that might give you a clue. Yada
   Wiki doesn’t do anything special on that screen.
 * Best regards,
 * David

 * Thnks. Yeah, definitely getting some Javascript errors. Sadly, I know nothing
   about that stuff, and all the errors just say inject.bundle failed from what 
   I make of it.

 * Hi doulos12,
 * I don’t know what is causing the error. You could try:
 * -Disabling your web browser extensions to see if they are causing a conflict.
   -
   Doing a “quick edit” on one record to try to change the status to see if that
   works. -Does the bulk edit work on regular posts. -Disabling plugins one by one
   to see if one is causing an issue.
 * I hope one of those ideas gives you more clues as to what is causing the issue.
 * Best regards,
 * David
