Problem/Motivation

It is impossible to add a new translation in case the user wants to keep the same settings for comments across all translations of the node.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install standard
  2. Install content translation
  3. Add language (in my case Polish)
  4. Go to content translation settings and make Article translatable. Only check Title and Body field, unselect the rest, especially the Comments field. Also select "Hide non translatable fields on translation forms"
  5. Create a node in default language (English)
  6. Go to the Translate tab and add Polish translation.
  7. Fill the form and submit.
  8. "Non-translatable fields can only be changed when updating the original language."

Proposed resolution

CommentFieldItemList needs to implement it's own hasAffectingChanges that only check if status property has changed. If not it will check all properties, included the computed once like:

  • status
  • cid
  • last_comment_timestamp
  • last_comment_name
  • last_comment_uid
  • comment_count

And these properties will all be set to 0 until the new entity revision has been saved.

hasAffectingChanges in FieldItemList simply check !$this->equals($original_items);
https://git.drupalcode.org/project/drupal/-/blob/8.8.x/core/lib/Drupal/C...

However in the hasAffectingChanges doc it is written:

/**
* Determines whether the field has relevant changes.
*
* This is for example used to determine if a revision of an entity has
* changes in a given translation. Unlike
* \Drupal\Core\Field\FieldItemListInterface::equals(), this can report
* that for example an untranslatable field, despite being changed and
* therefore technically affecting all translations, is only internal metadata
* or only affects a single translation.

    (Drupal 8 Multilingual Initiative) is the tag used by the multilingual initiative to mark core issues (and some contributed module issues). For versions other than Drupal 8, use the i18n (Internationalization) tag on issues which involve or affect multilingual / multinational support. That is preferred over Translation.
