Drupal (7) VBO snippet - Turn on pathauto & Remove redirects

vbo-snippet.php

// This script can be run via Views Bulk Operations in the "Execute arbitrary PHP code" op
// This is, obviously, at your own risk. I'd take a db backup first.

// Force "Generate alias automatically" to be TRUE, then save the node.
$entity->path['pathauto'] = TRUE;
node_save($entity);
// Remove any stray redirects so that there's one true URL
$deleted = db_delete('redirect')
    ->condition('redirect', 'node/' . $entity->nid)
    ->execute();
