[SOLVED] How to massively change item state in mysql db was created by gcprnet

On our site there are about 1500 articles that have the state "archived" that now need to be published. Since changing the state in backend (20 at a time takes about 20 seconds). I figured that I could change this in the MySQL database much easier:

Code:

UPDATE `prefix_content` SET `state` = '1' WHERE `state` = '2';

Can this be done like this, or is there anything els I need to be aware of?
Best Regards

Hello

you can do it ,

just after doing it,
- logout from backend,
- relogin and go to FLEXIcontent dashboard (backend home page) and click to update temporary data if you are asked

-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?
