Hi Tanya,
You’ll need to enable the field for the entity types before you can add content through bulk edit. There are two ways to do this - through Manage Entity Types (you were close!) and through Custom Fields. See the Custom Fields unit for a refresh.
- Under Account Settings > Manage Entity Types. Click on the relevant entity type and the click “Edit Field Configuration”. You’ll have to scroll to the section you want to add the field to and then click the + icon at the bottom of the section, where you can click “Add Field”.
- Under Account Settings > Custom Fields. Click on the relevant custom field (or click Add Field if it doesn’t exist already). Then under Field Availability, check off the entity types you want to add.
In this scenario, we’d recommend using the second method since you’re adding the same custom field to multiple entity types. You can do it all at once on the field rather than adding it for each entity type.
