Yes this is causing me problems as well.
As an alternative, has anyone discovered a way to bulk edit the database on this, setting conditions for which records are to be toggled?
For instance, I have this code to bulk edit text strings in phpmyadmin:
UPDATE wp_links SET link_description = replace(link_description,”findstring”,”replacestring”);
Can anyone advise me if it can be adapted to toggle the visibility of all links in a specific category?
