Update existing library entries

Hi there,

there is a small bug in the latest patch, where we cannot get sections, because we are also fetching the templates here when trying to access the saved sections. This patche fixes this issue.

It would be good to have the update checkbox behind a permission to prevent templates from being overridden by restricted users.

None of the patches is applying on the latest version.

Hi all,

I am able to get #16 patch working and able to replace the existing template/sections with new one and reuse the new one across the site.

Drupal Version : 10.2.6

Thanks

I love this idea but new features are only being added in the 2.x branch and that branch has changed enormously since this MR was opened. If I get time, I'm going to try creating a new branch/MR based on your work that is compatible with the current 2.x branch. (I already started working on this; there are additional considerations since we only want folks to be able to update templates they have access to edit, sections and templates are now using content entity forms/fields and those two types were merged into the same add form to reduce duplication.

Unfortunately since templates can have additional unknown fields, this approach may be really confusing for editors unless there was some additional magic to have editors first pick whether or not they were creating a new template or updating an old and then as a 2nd step if updating, populate the entity form with the existing section template field values. I'm just not sure how feasible this approach is when there could be additional custom fields on the entity.
