Problem/Motivation

The gin theme moves the delete button from the main actions to the side bar. Users have found that they accidentially fill in the log message and then hit delete as the buttons just there. Want to move the delete button back. WOuld be nice to have this as a configured option.

Proposed resolution

Here is a patch that removes the delete button movement code.

Remaining tasks

Be nice if someone could add this stuff as a config option in UI.

User interface changes

Put delete button back in main actions.

    I'm closing this as works as designed for the time being as we're currently not planning in introducing new settings in general. But (!) there are plans to add a split button (Save/Preview/Delete) to the sticky header where the delete action would be part of, but that's currently in the backlog.

    Cheers

    I agree. The location of the Delete button in the sidebar is poor UX, as it's too instinctive to hit that button when adding a note to the revision log or changing state. Should be elsewhere, or added to the save/preview button cluster which is more consistent with other Drupal UX.

    The patch is perfect (thanks @zarexogre), and I will probably use this as a default in all my builds.

    @saschaeggi - can't find any reference to a split button anywhere
