Copying my reviews to my comments

Is there a way to bulk copy all of the reviews (I have written for my own catalog) to the comments section? I know how to do one at a time but I have several hundred.

Unfortunately, unless you know browser coding to create the bulk move yourself, there isn't an existing way to do it.

Now one way you might want to do it, make sure you have a view with both comments and reviews showing in your books, then edit them both and copy across.

(Though why do you not want your reviews in with all the other reviews? I'm just curious.)

>1 wunderlong88: Do you know that your review is saved in "your book" already? It isn't just in the general review section. You just have to click the "Edit" link where it says "Review" under your copy of the book and you can see it. I often do this because I don't want to search through all the reviews to find out what I said.

>3 krazy4katz: or on "Book Details" from the work page which avoids the risk of changing anything. It is annoying that your own details aren't foremost when viewing a work.

>2 gilroy: They are really comments, not reviews. I didn't realize there was a comment section and so I mistakenly chose to use the review section for my comments.

>5 wunderlong88: Well, that makes perfect sense. :) Silly me for not considering that possibility.
