Blocks: Mass Actions block
Clem SmithThis block allows instructors to perform actions upon multiple resources or activities, rather than having to perform repeated actions on individual items.
To use this block, Javascript must be enabled in your browse and you must be in editing mode in the course home page. The user must have capability "block/massaction:use". The block may now be used with a course in any course format. However, the OneTopic format is not properly supported at this time. The work-around is to change course formats to another format (Weekly or Topics are well-tested), move the course content around, then change the course format back to OneTopic. I will try to fix the interaction between OneTopic and Mass Actions in the future.
Supported actions include mass selection, indentation, deletion, hiding, showing, and moving. To select items to perform actions on, simply click the checkbox to the right of it in the course home page or use select functionality, then click the action you would like to perform in the block.
Note: the original block for Moodle 1.9 is on http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-20213; this is the version for Moodle 2.
If you encounter bugs or have suggestions for improvement, please use the bug tracker URL and I will work on those as quickly as possible.

Checkbox does not appear on all topics
If I click on 'select all', nothing gets selected.
version is the Moodle 3.5+ (Build: 20180628)
There are a few issuse when use the onetopic course format that has multiple parent sections with child sections.
1. Bulk move activities between sections that have child sections between the transition:
A course has 5 parent sections, Section 3 and 4 have 4 child sections each (Total of 13 sections)
Move a bunch of activities from Section 1 to Section 5
These activities will be moved to a child section in section 3 instead of section 5
2. Can't bulk move activities that are in a child section
Thanks
