Bulk action for custom post types

Question

I am working on a wordpress project and I want to add the bulk action on my custom post.

I have used Custom Post Type UI plugin for custom post and Advanced Custom Fields plugin for custom fields.

Please suggest me any code or plugin to add bulk action for my custom posts.

Thanks, Aniket.

Since WordPress 4.7 (released December 2016) it is possible to add custom bulk actions without using JavaScript.

//Hooks
add_action( 'current_screen', 'my_bulk_hooks' );
function my_bulk_hooks() {
    if( current_user_can( 'administrator' ) ) {
      add_filter( 'bulk_actions-edit-post', 'register_my_bulk_actions' );
      add_filter( 'handle_bulk_actions-edit-post', 'my_bulk_action_handler', 10, 3 );
      add_action( 'admin_notices', 'my_bulk_action_admin_notice' );      
    }
}   

//Register
function register_my_bulk_actions($bulk_actions) {
  $bulk_actions['email_to_eric'] = __( 'Email to Eric', 'text_domain');
  return $bulk_actions;
}

//Handle 
function my_bulk_action_handler( $redirect_to, $doaction, $post_ids ) {
  if ( $doaction !== 'email_to_eric' ) {
    return $redirect_to;
  }
  foreach ( $post_ids as $post_id ) {
    // Perform action for each post.
  }
  $redirect_to = add_query_arg( 'bulk_emailed_posts', count( $post_ids ), $redirect_to );
  return $redirect_to;
}

//Notices
function my_bulk_action_admin_notice() {
  if ( ! empty( $_REQUEST['bulk_emailed_posts'] ) ) {
    $emailed_count = intval( $_REQUEST['bulk_emailed_posts'] );
    printf( '<div id="message" class="updated fade">' .
      _n( 'Emailed %s post to Eric.',
        'Emailed %s posts to Eric.',
        $emailed_count,
        'text_domain'
      ) . '</div>', $emailed_count );
  }
}

Note.1: You must use bulk_actions filters when WP_Screen object is defined.That's why I used current_screen action in line 2.

Note.2: if you want to add bulk action to custom page like woocommerce products page just change screen id in line 5 & 6. Ex:
add_filter( 'bulk_actions-edit-product', 'register_my_bulk_actions' );
add_filter( 'handle_bulk_actions-edit-product', 'my_bulk_action_handler', 10, 3 );
