Component body

This module adds a views field which allows you to trigger an action on any entity. The action is selectable in the field configuration.
Contrary to Views Bulk Operations these "operations" are links in the views row itself. This module is very similar to Views Row Operations: https://www.drupal.org/sandbox/jamesharv/1843622. It even had the same name so I've rebranded it to views_entity_actions.

Examples of entity actions in a views row:

  • A link to trigger node publish / unpublish
  • A link to unblock a user
  • A button to trigger a rules action manually
  • Custom flagging / unflagging behaviour
  • Mark a views row with a taxonomy term
  • etc...
