Conflict between layout_builder_perms and layout_builder_at module weights causes "Access Denied" on translated nodes

Open on Drupal.org →
Created on 9 April 2025, 17 days ago

Problem/Motivation

When both layout_builder_perms and layout_builder_at modules are enabled, accessing layout builder on translated content results in an "Access Denied" error.

This happens because both modules implement the OverridesSectionStorage plugin with the same weight. Since Drupal plugin selection is weight-sensitive, the conflict causes Drupal to randomly pick one implementation over the other, leading to broken permission logic — especially on translated nodes.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Enable layout_builder, layout_builder_perms, and layout_builder_at.
  2. Configure layout builder for a content type.
  3. Create a node and translate it.
  4. Try to access layout builder on the translated version.
  5. See "Access Denied".

Proposed resolution

To ensure layout_builder_at's plugin is registered after the one from layout_builder_perms.

This allows its OverridesSectionStorage plugin to override the one from layout_builder_perms, ensuring that translation-specific access logic (handleTranslationAccess()) runs correctly.
