Description

Is there a way to use Print with Actions and VBO (http://drupal.org/project/views_bulk_operations) so that it is possible to export multiple pages as PDF?
This would be a great feature.

The Print module doesn't seem to export either actions or node operations. Therefore, VBO cannot reuse the functionality provided by Print.

Sorry to be playing ping-pong with this issue, but it does belong to the Print module. I cannot encapsulate every bit of functionality provided by each module. For an example of how to write an action, you can refer to actions that are bundled with VBO.

Thanks for the info.. I don't know/use the VBO module so I didn't know what was necessary. Now I know. So the ping-pong was very useful.

When someone n€€d$ it enough or submits a patch I will be willing to implement it..

Hi all.

Bringing this up again. Any news on this patch ? Could really be usefull. I'm not familiar with VBO and still a Drupal API newbie, but am willing to dive in to help out.

Cheers
