Is there a way to select multiple photos and change the photo
Say I wanted to select all the photos here and replace them with another photo.... how can I do that?
One can relink all instances of a linked image in one go by selecting the »parent« link.

Could you post a screenshot with the Links Panel visible.
In the Links Panel one can relink images (from the pop-up menu or with the icon at the bottom of the Panel).

you should use data merge for what you are doing. You will find it easy and quick.
(although I might be misunderstanding which are trying to end up with)

Since this is just a template, I wanted to change the photo. Instead of having to change the photo of each square independently, I thought there was a way to select all and import the photo.
(select all squares, ctrl and d to import a photo and walaa... all the photos are changed to the new photo)

I don't understand your links panel.. nor can I find a data merge

So will you let us see what your Links Panel looks like or not?

Hi greenflymedia ,
what we are seeing in your template are two different images placed on the spread.
One is placed a couple of times.
You want to select all graphic frames with the images on the spread and substitute all the images with a single one.
That cannot be done in one go with InDesign's UI. What you could do in one go is to substitute all instances of AMH_0136.JPG of the whole document in one go. That might be a difference to substitute all instance of AMH_0136.JPG in your selection.
For everything else you'd need a custom written script.
That's doable.
Regards,
Uwe
