Combine Add & Configure Custom Block Screens

Created on 1 June 2016, over 8 years ago

Updated 22 March 2023, almost 2 years ago

This issue came up in our weekly UX meeting (May 31st 2016). We'd like to propose merging the initial "Add Block", and "Configure Block" screens.

Issue: When adding a custom block, you are forced to add the content, then configure it.
Goal: Ease the creation of adding/configuring blocks.
Possible Solution: Merge the 2 pages, adding the configuration settings to the “Add Block” screen.

Needs product manager review
It is used to alert the product manager core committer(s) that an issue represents a significant new feature, UI change, or change to the "user experience" of Drupal, and their signoff is needed. If an issue significantly affects the usability of Drupal, use Needs usability review instead (see the governance policy draft for more information).

If the forms are not combined, or as an interim solution, can we have a link from the block config form to the block content edit form and vice versa? Is there an issue for that? I could not find one; this is the closest with 📌 Provide helpful editing links on "admin/structure/block" for deriver blocks (menu, views, block content, etc.) Needs review and 📌 Improving the usability between "custom block" and "content" Closed: outdated as increasingly distant runners-up.

📌 Provide helpful editing links on "admin/structure/block" for deriver blocks (menu, views, block content, etc.) Needs review is the one you want I think
