 * Hi,
 * Is there a way to multi edit posts. I especially am looking for changing the 
   author for a range of posts and adding/changing categories for a selection (search)
   of posts.
 * Also like to multi add the featured image of posts.
 * Is there a plugin or other way to do this?

 * Changing the author and categories, can be done by using the quick edit. In your
   posts window, if you check the posts you want to edit and then click the Bulk
   edit drop down and choose edit, all the posts will come up and you can easily
   change the author and categories.
 * Here’s a good video by Michael Pick showing how to use quick edit – [http://wordpress.tv/2009/01/14/using-quick-edit-and-bulk-edit-to-manage-your-posts-in-half-the-time/](http://wordpress.tv/2009/01/14/using-quick-edit-and-bulk-edit-to-manage-your-posts-in-half-the-time/)
 * I think that the featured image will need to be done manually though. 🙁
