There are two actions (i.e. Promote post to front page & Add to nodequeue) I would like to execute at the same time.

Can someone please guide me through on how can I achieve that?

There's currently no way to call two actions in the same run, short of using the PHP action and invoking the required actions programmatically. I'll consider this a feature request that allows the user to select multiple actions, and to give them a certain order of execution.

Thanks for responding. Guess I'll execute the actions separately for now.

Btw, great module. It's really a time saver.

In the meantime I think you can use the Rules module and make a Ruleset with your actions and then call that Rule set from VBO.

You can use this tutorial : http://vimeo.com/15666220

It could be:

  • VBO view
    • Rule set
      • Rule 1
        • ON (conditions)
          • Condition 1
          • Condition 2
        • DO (actions)
          • Action 1
          • Action 2
          • Action 3
      • Rule 2
        • ON (conditions)
          • Condition 1
          • Condition 2
        • DO (actions)
          • Action 1
          • Action 2

A ruleset can do this.
No sense in trying to hack this in the core actions support, because the core actions will always be more limited than what Rules has to offer.
It's additional complexity for an edge case, with no clear win.
