Concurrent editing of layouts is very confusing

Created on 11 January 2019, almost 6 years ago
Updated 3 August 2023, over 1 year ago

Problem/Motivation

If two users attempt to edit the same layout, they will both see the changes the other is making.

Proposed resolution

Mimic the Views UI (which also uses tempstore.shared) and lock the Layout Builder UI when another user is editing the layout.

Remaining tasks

N/A

User interface changes

The LB UI will now show a message when there is a lock of another user. Breaking the lock will bring you back to the LB UI to make your own changes.

API changes

  • Blocks-Layouts

    Blocks and Layouts Initiative. See the #2811175 Add layouts to Drupal issue.

  • Needs usability review

    Used to alert the usability topic maintainer(s) that an issue significantly affects (or has the potential to affect) the usability of Drupal, and their signoff is needed. When adding this tag, make it easy to review the issue. Make sure the issue summary describes the problem and the proposed solution. Screenshots usually help a lot! To get sign-off on issues with the "Needs usability review" tag, post about them in the #ux channel on Drupal Slack, and/or attend a UX meeting to demo the patch and get direct feedback from designers/UX folks/product management on next steps. If an issue represents a significant new feature, UI change, or change to the general "user experience" of Drupal, use Needs product manager review instead. See the scope of responsibilities for product managers.

  • Needs tests

    The change is currently missing an automated test that fails when run with the original code, and succeeds when the bug has been fixed.

  • Needs reroll

    The patch will have to be re-rolled with new suggestions/changes described in the comments in the issue.
