Show 'Edit summary' links on multi-value long text field with summary

Created on 12 October 2016, about 8 years ago
Updated 1 February 2023, almost 2 years ago

Problem/Motivation

  1. Create a long text + summary field and set it to be multivalued on a content type of your choice.
  2. Create a node of that content type.
  3. On the node edit form, the summary part of the field is not displayed, and neither is the expected "Show summary" link.

Proposed resolution

On multi-value fields add the link above each delta's textarea.

Remaining tasks

Needs frontend framework manager review

User interface changes

The link appears for multi-value long text with summary fields above the delta's textarea.

I came across this issue on 8.1.10, is also (as of writing) present in 8.3.x.

Demo on simplytest.me, on 8.3.x branch:

This issue has come up before:

And there is another thread looking at the summary not showing up in certain circumstances:
