Editing a CCK field of a Node via View Bulk Operations wipes out Estimated Time of that Node... [#1365228]

Bummer of an issue!

So we've got a Node Type called Project. It's got a CCK field called Priority that sorts it's order in our workflow. It also has Time Tracking turned on for it. If we edit this CCK field using VBO, it deletes the Estimated Time set by Time Tracker and resets it to zero. If we edit this CCK field 'by hand' by editing the Node directly, it doesn't delete the Estimated Time.

Why VBO CCK field editing would so strongly effect the Time Tracker set Estimated Time is a little worrysome!

Are you able to replicate this on a clean install of Drupal running only time_tracker and VBO? It seems like this is more of a problem with VBO since editing the node manually seems to work fine for you.

What VBO action are you using?

Haven't had the chance yet, but I'll give that a try over the holidays.

We're using the "Modify node fields (views_bulk_operations_fields_action)" to change a CCK Text Field that's using a pulldown widget & preset options.

I'll go dig in the VBO issues to see if it's had this effect with any other module.

Thanks for looking into this!
