Add Instance Button does not respect Inheritance

Created on 3 May 2023, over 1 year ago

Updated 13 June 2024, 6 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Setting up inheritance is useful when displaying multiple event instances from the same event series because the instances frequently need to share the same information.

Steps to reproduce

Set up with versions Drupal 9.5.8, Recurring Events 2.0.0-rc7, Field Inheritance 2.0.0-rc6
Set up Event Series/Instance type.
Connect two fields - Source: Event Series. Destination: Event Instance via Inheritance (fallback type)
Create an Event Series with Source field filled out.
Hit the Add Instance Button
The instance created won't properly display the inherited value.

Proposed resolution

An Event Instance created via the Add Instance button should function in the same way as events generated when the Event Series is created with respect to Inherited Fields.
It would also be nice to have the option to hide that button via permissions or a setting option.

This appears to still be an issue.

After digging, I realized it's cause the field_inheritance module only has a single, very broad permission.

Here's a patch:
