Hi @all,

I have many times processed metadata by "edit metadata in bulk" and it worked fine. After I've used once "search and replace" the processing of "edit metadata in bulk" no longer works, because every time I click "Apply", the message is

"Error: search/replace invalid - Search pattern is invalid. You must specify a search expression in the "Search for" field.

Processing of metadata in bulk is therefore impossible.

What can I do?

Thanks in advance and regards
