Steps to Reproduce Behavior

Select the SS3 HTML Web Admin.
Choose Publishing and then select Content Management.
Log into the Intranet membership instance (this is where the cmsample is stored).
Select the cmsample and then click Properties.
Select the Content link.
Filter and submit your request(Use Job Postings as an example).
Select more than one file and click Properties. The bulk properties change page will appear.
Select properties, for example, "Job Type".
Select a new value (example select Executive) and click Submit.
Exit out of the HTML Web Admin.

Find the files you just modified and open the files in Notepad (or another editor) to see the current meta tag. It should look like the following:

<meta name="jobtype" content="Executive">

RESOLUTION
