How does one change the address of a location?

zelbinian says:
I have a sinking feeling this isn't supported at all, and that would be terrible. Both my home and work location just changed recently, and I'd like the locations on the map to be updated accordingly. I could just create new locations of course, but then the 100s of tasks I have associated with those two locations I'd have to update manually. That sounds like a big bucket of Not Too Much Fun. Any way to get around this?

zelbinian,
You're right; this isn't currently supported. Sorry for the inconvenience.

However, there's an easy workaround:
1) Rename your current "Location" location to "Old Location".
2) Create a new location called "Location".
3) Search for tasks located at "Old Location" by searching for: location:"Old Location"
4) Select all results by clicking on the Select "All" link (or pressing the keyboard shortcut, 'a').
5) Set the location for the selected tasks to be "Location" rather than "Old Location".

You'll just need to do this twice, once for home and once for work.

Hope this helps!
