Problem/Motivation

In the Drupal Layout Builder, block content entities encounter a minor UI issue related to titles. Every block content entity requires a value in the info field, which is titled as Block description within the reusable block library. This field is displayed in the administrative UI as the entity's title when browsing through the block library, impacting the usability of block management.

Steps to reproduce

Background:
Given that a user with permission to edit the layout of a page with Layout Builder
And trying to add an inline block in a section

When Creating a new inline block
And the Display title check box is checked
→

When the Display title check box is unchecked
→

When saving with no title
Then the an inline error will show up
And blocks the editor from adding/saving the block
→

Proposed resolution

  • Borrow the Inline Block UX class from the no longer supported Layout Builder UX → module. ( used in Varbase ~9) but not used in Varbase ~10
  • Hide the label field when the label display is unchecked.
  • Uncheck the label display checkbox for new blocks.
  • Prefill the label field for new blocks.
