The improved face detection in 7.2.0 is fantastic.

Is there any way that I can select a group of faces in the unconfirmed group and confirm their face tags all at once? I've searched around, but I can't seem to find any way to do this. Am I missing something?

I've gone through and corrected the mistaken identities and now how 1200+ tags that I've verified as correct using the mk-I eyeball, but clicking each one individually to tell digikam this is just too time consuming. I would like to get these out of the 'Unconfirmed' bucket before I run the face detection on the next batch of 1000+ pictures.

Any help would be appreciated!

You can hold down shift and select a whole bunch of images at once, or use the mouse to drag a rectangle around them, then hover over one of them, and type a name in the "Who is this?" field, and it will apply to all of them.

Likewise, to confirm a bunch of auto-recognized faces, select them all and press the checkmark on one of them.
