Description

I have the module installed and working, and see that if I create or edit an image or imagefield node, the zoomify tab is added ok. But I have several hundred images already, so I'm hoping there's a way to 'zoomify' them in bulk.

In any case, thanks for the module, it's a great help.

Great suggestion. I'll create an action that can be bulk-executed using Views Bulk Operations.

This feature is now implemented. To bulk update nodes:
* Install Views Bulk Operations
* Access the default VBO at admin/content/node2
* Edit the view -> click Bulk Operations settings (little gear icon)
* Check the box "Create or update Zoomify tiles (zoomify_tile_action)"
* Check the radio "To execute operations: Use Batch API"
* Click "Update default display" then "Save"
* Back on the view page, filter the nodes by desired content type
* Select a few or all nodes
* Select the operation "Create or update Zoomify tiles" then click "Execute"
* Watch as each image is being zoomified!
