It doesn’t work. You can add columns to the all posts screen (i.e. excerpts), but you can’t actually edit them. That’s the whole point of the plugin and I see where the dev posted on StackExchange (how I found this plugin). ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/dccf6137d1ee7d0a032a82f4f9a4e7001356163e0124ab99a0daf11ecb9ecaf1? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Still works](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/still-works-207/)󠁿 [myuption](https://profiles.wordpress.org/myuption/) August 10, 2022 I have a +1K blog and I am updating exceprts with it. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/4ce66e31bcb8884164f94b19792ab0597b94c509b178c6bd8455d0e30c167c18? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[WOW – adding excerpt in the quick edit mode.](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wow-adding-excerpt-in-the-quick-edit-mode/)󠁿 [carldavidcarlstrom](https://profiles.wordpress.org/carldavidcarlstrom/) June 23, 2020 1 reply Have been searching for a plugin or code to be able to edit the excerpt in the quick edit on the All post tab. This plugin hasn´t been updated for a while but I thought I´d give it a go and now I´m glad I did. It worked! 5 stars. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/f51ea997daeae1bbd175edce68612565856b66b23a58fa673f8688a3302d30af? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[I’ve been looking forever for this!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ive-been-looking-forever-for-this/)󠁿 [Bigue Nique](https://profiles.wordpress.org/biguenique/) February 25, 2020 Just a simple way to BULK REMOVE taxonomy terms in the Posts view! Why on Earth such feature isn’t built in natively into WordPress? I didn’t try all the options( the plugin seems pretty flexible, allowing to bulk edit custom taxonomies and fields) but the one I needed worked. The design could be made better (I don’t understand why all these columns are added in the Posts view and the bulk edit view feels a bit “disrupted” with the extra options). But as long as I only enable these extra bulk edition options I needed, the single item quick edit view remains unaltered and the options only appear in the the bulk quick edit view… And geez, I’m glad I have them now! Thank you! I hope this plugins stays maintained in the future! Works for me with WordPress 5.3.2 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/cf0129686a614c81e3363d3d49eaec084de29eabf6d5ff5e3cf566baaa93eef4? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Fabulous – I just wish I’d used this 12 hours ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fabulous-i-just-wish-id-used-this-12-hours-ago/)󠁿 [wwwolf](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wwwolf/) March 29, 2019 OK I had a very specific issue – for some reason during exporting posts from one site and importing them to another, a load of invisible characters appeared in the Excerpt field (tabs and carriage returns). Took me most of a day messing around to realise that was the problem, but once I did and found this plugin, I had a feeling it would be robust, having used Axelrant plugins before. Anyway, problem solved. The simple option to “delete Excerpts” cleaned it all up, where fancy search/replaces in the database had failed. Now all the auto-generated excerpts have reappeared in my blog listing 🙂 🙂 🙂 Thank you sooooo much! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/2a49cf5c5d7eb51c36c82a3d683f34430a7df2dc3dadbe3b3e22d65fedafbd0c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Ugly, confusing, features don’t work, free version does nothing](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/ugly-confusing-features-dont-work-free-version-does-nothing/)󠁿 [Michael Dance](https://profiles.wordpress.org/seventhsteel/) October 29, 2018 The free version is useless (no support for custom fields or custom post types). Theoretical features that seem to exist don’t work (enabling editing post excerpts via Quick Edit does nothing for me in WP 4.9.8). The plugin description is poorly written so it’s hard to know what you’re actually getting before you install. Turns out the answer is: nothing (except obtrusive “Donate” buttons, a little tacky for a plugin trying to upsell you).
