Add "approve all current nodes" for a content type in the admin menu

Well actually this is the central functionality of content moderation and the most important one.

That message tells the visitor, that according that content there is no live so no approved version at all. This means, that the current viewed content is possibly faulty and can not be trusted. If you dont like those messages for visitors and you want rather hide those content till those get approved, you might use drafts

Actually it is not connected to a wiki behavior, but rather to quality managemennt where rules are more strict compare if you use that in a classic CMS case.

The solution you just have chosen is the correct one. Its not right removing the note its right to do what you actually suggest: "Actually those revision are expected to be approved".

Actually iam not sure where to put that functionality. On installation wont work out, as actually you will do so only for the moderated node types.

On activating the moderation on a node type, it should actually only happen once, but maybe even every time?

My idea would be showing a note for the admin when moderation was just activated which shows "when you like to approve and set live all the current revisions of node type XYZ, please click here." The we have a proxy form form confirmation (safety agains CSRF) and we are done.

What do you think?

This module does exactely what I need ! Thanks to the dev !

a mass update in the http://XXX/admin/content/node would also be a very nice feature.

For now, ... sorry I have bad deadline, so I need to moove on . I wrote a quick and dirty workaround for people

It published all nodes that are not " live " using the latest revision.

!!! It has of course ... to be removed once the site goes live

function YOURMODULE_nodeapi(&$node, $op, $a3 = NULL, $a4 = NULL) {
  
  if ($op=="load" && $node->nid){
    static $node_recurse;
    if ($node_recurse) return;
    $node_recurse=true;
    $res=db_result(db_query("select max(vid) from node_revisions where nid={$node->nid}"));
    $live = _content_moderation_live_revision($node->nid);
    $node_recurse=false;
    if (!$live && $res==$node->vid ){
      _content_moderation_set_live($node->vid,$node->nid);
      _content_moderation_save_history($node,"none","live",1,"Initial synchronisation");
      _content_moderation_update_revision_state($node->vid,$node->nid,"live");
      drupal_set_message("{$node->title} with vid {$node->vid} as been put live");
    }
  }
}

Subscribing !

In case some one needs another quick "activate all option"

I used EXECUTE PHP block and ran this code to activate all nodes of type 'page' that are not live:

$res = db_query("select nid from node where type='page'");
while ($row=db_result($res)) {
    drupal_set_message('<pre>' . print_r($row,TRUE) . '</pre>');
    $live = _content_moderation_live_revision($row);
    if (!$live){
      $node = node_load($row);
      _content_moderation_set_live($node->vid,$node->nid);
      _content_moderation_save_history($node,"none","live",1,"Initial synchronisation");
      _content_moderation_update_revision_state($node->vid,$node->nid,"live");
      drupal_set_message("{$node->title} with vid {$node->vid} as been put live");
    }
}

Thats an interesting feature!. What we need now is to put this functionality behind a form and we are done.
