Easily change the parents of multiple uploads.

== Description ==

Did you upload an image or other item and now want to change it's parent post/page to another one? This plugin will allow you to do that. It adds a new option to the "Bulk Actions" dropdown on the media management page.

The parent matters because the `[gallery]` feature simply lists out all uploads that have been attached to that post or page, so this will effectively allow you to move images between galleries.

[Joel Sholdice](http://lacquerhead.ca/) deserves some credit for this plugin and I used his single-item changing plugin for inspiration.

== Installation ==
