How do I update content in multiple pages?

How can I update multiple pages to change content entered in by rich text editor component? Example: change '<p>bentest8</p>' in rteText property to '<p>bentest800</p>' (in screenshot attached).  Can bulk editor be used?  If so, how?  I try to add rteText to 'Custom Properties/Columns', but that cell returns empty.  I am using AEM 5.6.1

Hi

As mentioned by Scott, "Bulk editor" is the tool which is required by you.

Please go through this reference community article for your reference:-

Searching and Editing Content

To use the bulk editor to edit multiple items simultaneously:

  • In the Tools console, click the Importers folder to expand it.

  • Double-click the Bulk Editor to open it.

  • Enter your selection requirements:

    • For example:

      file
    • Click Search. The Bulk Editor displays the results.
      For the example above, all the pages that meet your search criteria are returned and displayed with the requested columns.

      file
    • Make any changes you need by double-clicking in a cell.

      file
    • Click Save to save your changes (the Save button will be activated once you have edited a cell).

          Bulk Editor lets you search for specific CQ nodes like pages and make changes to content - like titles. Read this section "SEARCHING AND EDITING CONTENT" at https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6-1/administering/bulk_editor.html. The bulk edit has its own UI and does not use the RTE that is used at a component level - such as a text component. 

          Hope this helps
