Problem/Motivation

When I try to bulk check the "Generate automatic url alias" that not work. I have no errors.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install pathauto
  2. install VBO + VBO edit
  3. Activate translations (I have 3 languages)
  4. Create some nodes with the "Generate automatic url alias" checkbox off and a manual adding alias.
  5. Activate VBO edit on node overview view
  6. Select one or some nodes and try to bulk edit "URL alias" checkbox

I'am open at all workarround solution for do this programmatically if you have one that work.

Thanks!

    I have made a simple check, only for pathauto in case of path field is modified.
    It works for me, but needs some tests in other use cases, and some real tests that I have not wrote.
