Description
It would great if the node bulk operations (especially delete) used the Drupal 6.x batch API, so you could get a progress indication on the deletion and wouldn't risk the process timing out. This would be especially helpful since VBO allows you to select *all* the nodes in a given view.
#1
It does. Check the Views settings, Bulk Operations style, gear icon.
#2
Ok, great. I tried it out and it works perfectly. Could this be added to the documentation (README.txt)?
#3
Updated title.
#4
The README.txt file points to the module's page on Drupal.org.
#5
Yes, but the module page doesn't say how to use the Batch API. Would it be possible to add that to the FAQ?
#6
Done. Thanks.
#7
Thanks so much! This is great.
