Dear Martijn,

I have text, integer, taxonomy, cck_taxonomy_ssu, date and other fields. None of which would appear as an action in the action view. Is this just a bug or a task?

I tried the field_actions.module from Mark Fredrickson combined with the views_bulk_operations.module. But the first one, by just adding two "clonable" actions to the actions.module while claiming "The Field Actions module combines the power of Drupal actions with the data in CCK nodes to create new ways of working with your nodes in Drupal" appeared very disappointing.

I guess that all these features come with drupal 6... or 7... but many people are still under 5.x or even 4.x (I guess you too still run such sites!)

You get it, the feature "Content Allows you to edit multiple cck fields at once" would just be a killer one for editing hundreds of images at once.

  • About batch editing of images at once: The image_import.module only supports the taxo_terms... but I mainly use the cck_Taxonomy_ssu.module (so fantastic module!).
  • For info, I already "requested" a feature for hooking the image node edit page within the import UI, but a feature that would make it for any nodetype with the granularity offered by views... or the admin/content page would be incredibly valuable

    • .

I hope you already have an idea of what I'm talking about. Don't hesitate to ask for more infos. In case it'll help you, see my specs (Apple G5 Mac OS X server) attached.

Best regards,

Arsène

In fact, there was no need to patch. And the module still doesn't handle CCK fields... do you know what's wrong?

1- Is it that contributed module such as cck_taxonomy_ssu haven't defined its corresponding actions?

2- or is it that the eventual predefined generic actions from the action or action_views module only apply to cck fields and not to contributed cck fields?
In this case, why won't the cck text field and other standard cck fields associated actions be shown?

This Module will no longer be maintained (shocker) as this functionality is mainly present in VBO and thats what we started using internally.
