I would love to be able to delete multiple fields at a time.

When I go to fields in PW, in order to delete them you currently have to open each one, go to actions, click delete, check the box, and click delete. If you could make it so that you could edit/delete multiple fields at a time this process would go much faster.

The deletion of a field is a complex action. It involves checking all the templates that have them, and making user confirm his intent to prevent data loss. In fact, you rarely have to delete lots of fields.

But if you have to and want to dig a little deeper, you can speed up things doing it with the api from the cli. Maybe using something fancy like RockMigrations. But that is advanced stuff. I would not recommend it for beginners. For now I guess you need to figure out how the basic functionality works.

The Admin Actions module lets you do this (assuming the fields are not used by a template). It has some pretty helpful features including cleaning up unused fields and templates.

The problem with Admin Actions is that they do not work. They leave you with a blank screen or an error message.
