The Views Bulk Operations actions appear limited to basic actions like delete, promote, publish.
I would like to update a taxonomy field in a list of nodes but do not see a way to do this.

Thanks! The site was on PHP 7.0. With assistance from my hosting provider, I updated to PHP 7.4 and now I have access to the site again. No database re-import required.

Thank you very much. I will follow your advice.
Locked out of site after updating modules
The best you can do is test and report. If you find a contrib that doesn't work in php 8.3, create an issue in its queue so it gets fixed. In my experience, I've found that 7.4 is safest...

Hi argiepiano, Some contrib will not work in php 7.2 or lower, and some will not on PHP 8.1 or higher. Is there a way to find out which is the optimal PHP version for a...

Hello Gus 👋,
I don't believe that this feature is yet available for the 7.x version of VBO (happy to be proven wrong though). There where multiple issues where this was being discussed:
All of those issues seem to have been closed either as duplicate or wont-fix 😔 ...but I believe that there is an effort to implement it in https://www.drupal.org/project/views_bulk_operations/issues/1421656 which is now RTBC (but not merged/implemented yet).
I was also able to find some other bugs filed around this functionality, such as:
So it seems that this in not quite production-ready yet. Nevertheless, we could look into supporting it in Backdrop; so I'd suggest opening an issue in https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues
Cheers
Thanks but I use VBO to modify entities in nodes in drupal 7 all the time, including taxomony terms. Never had an issue with that.
I do not see any way VBO can be used to modify any node fields. This is an important (critical) feature for me. I have only built 2 sites using Backdrop but this could stop me right here.
Right, can you please take the time then to open a feature request for this in https://github.com/backdrop/backdrop-issues/issues ?
Ok, I posted the request for this feature. #4401
