Enable and Use QCFUM Bulk Actions

QCFUM 2.0.4 includes Max/All Access Bulk Actions controls on the frontend Users tab, with per-page selection, confirmation, and server-side per-user authorization. However, the current 2.0.4 submission path contains a source-level defect that prevents the bulk handler from being reached successfully.

Do not rely on Bulk Actions in production until that handler issue is corrected and retested.

What the Interface Provides

When Allow bulk actions is enabled, editable Users rows receive selection checkboxes and the page shows Select page, a selected-count indicator, an action selector, and Apply to Selected. JavaScript prevents submission when no user is selected and the form asks for confirmation.

Current 2.0.4 Blocking Defect

The bulk form submits qcfum_task=manager_bulk_action plus bulk_user_ids[], but it does not submit a single target_user_id. handleFrontendUserManagerAction() currently performs the generic single-target load/editability check before it branches to manager_bulk_action. With target ID 0, the request is rejected as That user is not available for frontend management.

Intended Per-Target Safety

The bulk branch itself is written to re-check each selected ID with isFrontendManagerEditable() and then call the same individual password/status/delete handlers used by single-user actions. That design would preserve action-specific settings and protection checks once the pre-branch validation defect is corrected.

Recommended 2.0.4 Practice

Leave Bulk Actions disabled for production staff and use the tested single-user controls until a corrected QCFUM release moves bulk handling ahead of the single-target requirement or otherwise supplies an appropriate bulk path. After updating, test allowed, view-only, and protected targets with the exact delegated staff group.
